Through life's journey, twists and turns, Love's guiding light, her spirit burns. From family's embrace to friends so dear, Love's gentle hand dispels all fear.

Loves guiding light
Love, a tempest's steady hand, Guiding me across the land. Through storms of doubt and fear's dark night, Your light has shone so ever bright. Like a steadfast ship upon the sea, You've weathered storms with me. Through trials and tribulations' strife, Love has been the source of life. A beacon shining ever true, Guiding me to paths anew. Through darkness, doubt, and despair's deep...

Twinkle, twinkle, how you shine, little guiding light of mine. So many things for us to see. We will see them, you and me. Some will be for the first time. Many mountains we will climb. One day, I'll find love so true when my flame takes me to you. Twinkle, twinkle, how you shine, little guiding light of...

Gifted with my guiding light All packaged up and bright Initial reaction was amazed Blown away but acted unfazed Words couldn’t express how I felt My insides instantly began to melt Wasn’t clear then but apparent now What this opened up for me to allow Pieces put into place over time Building up courage for my climb Eventually the fork in the road came When I...

May PanAfricanism be our guiding light
Let the paths of our ancestors remain in sight, Their struggles, their dreams, their fearless might. Nkrumah's vision, Sankara's spirit, Lumumba's grace, Mandela's legacy, a beacon for our race. Ghaddafi's resilience, a lesson to embrace From Cameroon's plains to Sahara's gliding grace. Under the vastness of the Atlantic sky, In Senegal's savannahs, let unity fly. Let Pan-Africanism fill every breath we take From cradle...

In a cozy home, as nightfall draws near, A father's love is strong and sincere. A son's journey, a father's pride, In this evening's glow, they stand side by side. At the kitchen table, their space well-worn, With tools and laughter, they're reborn. The young boy's eyes, full of wonder and dreams, Fixed on his father, it seems. A quiet room, a lamp's...

In an Indian home, at break of day, It is a tender scene, in a timeless way. A mother's love, a daughter's quest, In this morning light, they're truly blessed. On the floor, their space is shared, With books and notes, they're both prepared. The young girl's eyes, so full of grace, Locked onto her mother's wise embrace. A quiet room, the sun's...

In life's tempestuous sea, a daughter finds her guide, Her father's love, a beacon strong, unwavering by her side. Through verses of poetic grace, he weaves a shelter true, In every word, a refuge built, her strength to see her through. The storms of life may rage, and hardships come her way, But in his lines, a harbor waits, where...

Faith over fear I saw a guiding light in the darkest night, It was the hope that kept me going and the love that kept me growing. I feel secured with this faith, No challenge is too great to endure, For I know that with each step I take, my faith in the heart will never forsake....

Faith - a Guiding Light
In the realm of life, where shadows dance, There exists a force, a divine expanse, A beacon of light, through darkest night, A flame that flickers, ever burning bright. Faith, the compass of the wandering soul, Guiding our steps towards an unknown goal, It whispers softly, in the depths of our being, A melody of hope, forever freeing. In times of doubt, when...

Life’s Guiding Light He stands alone against the twilight sky while guiding weary sailors on their course traversing every danger by and by that coastal waters seemingly endorse. A Beacon in the darkness lending hope to ship-worn seamen at their journeys end, this leading Lighthouse helping them to cope with perils they can never comprehend. His beams that penetrate the dark abyss will lead us...
