For a Seeker

And if the light that shines so brightly
Turns out to be merely afterglow,
And the truth that has sustained you
Reveals itself as one more dead end,
Don’t despair, my pilgrim friend. You
Will go back to the beginning again,
And relearn there how to walk,
The way to lace words into prayer,
Off-key notes into joyous hymns,
Stumbling acts into graceful works,
And another light will illuminate
The Truth already deep within you.
