Fireflies Poem

Hope will come to me like a firefly
In my hour of ebony fog,
Burning with luminosity
From nowhere else but God.

I didn't know you had a blog! I would love to try making macarons with you. My sister tried them and her first batch were a huge success. One woman left me a comment and she had just posted hints on making them successfully. I hadn't had them until this trip and I fell in love.

I love this excerpt. Where is the whole poem found?

[Gwendolyn]

Hi Sage. That makes me so happy that you would want to read the whole poem. No one has ever asked that before. I wrote the poem during a really challenging time when I was sick for a long, long time. Here is the link (If the link doesn't work, click on the "poetry" category and scroll way down near the bottom. It's down there somewhere).
