even on dark days
beauty appears in the world
for those who would see

even on dark days
beauty appears in the world
for those who would see

large snowflakes falling
blanketing everything
with peaceful silence

smoke slowly rising
with the air so thick with cold
settles in billows

even in dark days
the joy of God lifts the poor
releasing captives
a low setting sun
the placid lake becoming
a mirror of lights
