A Poem by Kristine Amundrud

Raised by both light and darkness

growth in spite of the tension

naïve laughter at the wickedness

until it enveloped

like a cloud,

trouncing on the spirit

But

God’s

luminous

voice

chorused her out of despair

a lullaby for the heart that waited patiently

for light-ness to come.
