For Light of Love-- By Patricia Ann Farnsworth-Simpson--Canary Islands

For Light of Love

I close eyes for light of love to be
Glimmering brightly inside of me
A light created by love I know
That I pray will get a brighter glow
So I can see the way to be free

I hope it gets strong enough for me
To walk on it for Heaven to see
So I float light like feather you blow
For Light of Love

Light must develop inside agree
For love is the only guarantee
It’s all that’s needed to make you grow
Completely light in soul so you flow
Home to that Heaven above, whoopee!
For Light of Love
