The Spark

THE SPARK
 Creativity is the tiny voice that sings "I am"  in the gloom of darkest night.   It's the song of the soul, revealing itself,  reveling in tiny moments of truth.
Creativity is the pulse that quivers with hope in the rubble of man's discontent,  and the flame of commitment in the rearing of a child.
It lays a gentle sheen on the tired world  on a moonless eve, filling  hollows and thickets and stark rooms  with murmurs of inspiration.
Creativity quells the thirst for empty pleasures  and rides the waves of painful days.  
It fills old wounds and heals them.
It lights and smooths the steepest path.
It is the balm of my soul, my intention, my purpose and passion.  
The Spark is the Light of my life.
