Counter-Currents
111 words
And it will come, our dawning, do not doubt . . .
Right now it doesn’t seem like much, but we
Can already look and see the dark route
Ahead is lit a little. It was the
Bleakest path to take when we began. But,
We believed night couldn’t last, believed our
Day would dawn, believed our steps would be put
In step with others—so they shall. Power
Of vision, of faith, of will, brings our sun;
With power to make manifest a sky
Gone bright with morning, gone bright with the one
Light that cannot be dimmed again. Our eyes
Are trained ahead, we’ll watch the growing dawn
Illuminate our pathway. We’ll push on.

THEIR GOAL IS GENOCIDE. OURS. WHAT’S YOURS?
Very moving.
Thank you.
Did you ever think of putting this to music, like someone did with sections from “The Lightning and the Sun?”
What’s In YOUR Future? Focus Northwest!
I really liked these poems. C-C needs more of this!
I had the same thought and feeling last week. The path is opening up.
