Three and a half thousand

I sit this morning
with the energy of three and a half
thousand people
three and a half
thousand minds and hearts
turning towards light
turning towards goodness
like a compass needle that
cannot deny true north.

I sit this morning
with the energy of three and a half
thousand people
magnanimously sending ripples
of love
of peace
out into the world
cascading over the darkness
enveloping it
embracing it.

The power of darkness is overcome.
However small a candle flame
however wavering and insignificant
it appears to be
when this small flame
meets another flame
it grows
in brightness
in strength
in hope and trust.

When this small flame
meets three and a half
thousand flames
the light becomes concentrated  into
not a beam
but a wave
cascading over the darkness
enveloping it
embracing it.
The power of darkness is overcome.
