Poem #45: Manlach

*manlach I believe means "blessed flame."


Light illumine thought unspoken
Secret kept and oath unbroken
Light bereft of stain and sadness
moon aloft and star awoken

Light alive with holy oil
Warm above the tepid soil
Light to cut the night with gladness
Soothing pain and lifting toil

Light with soul and spirit shining
Malady and mirth combining
Light amidst a mournful madness

Brush your skin on creatures pining
