A PATCH OF ICE

A patch of glistening ice

In the waning sunset;

A lake upon a lake;

A tiny lake upon the great lake;

A lake of light shining on the darkness,

Like a single small white cloud

In a great blue sky;

Like a small truth upon a great lie,

Shining like a beacon

In a dark storm,

Upon the shore,

So that we may know Him

Forever more.
