The Power Within You

The Power Within You

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

The light in your eyes.

            Let it shine.

            Let your love rise,

            Never let it hide.

The smile in your heart.

            Nourish it from the day’s start.

            Bring forth your art

            And let your life play its part.

The laugh in your throat.

            Don’t be afraid to let it show.

            Sharing it wherever you go

            So joy others may know.

The hope of your calling.

            Never stop installing

            Into your faith even though you feel you’re falling.

            Your dreams aren’t stalling.

The love you bestow.

            Let it take hold

            And never let go.

            Be not afraid to let it flow.

The power within you.

            The God of all truth

            Is at work in all you do.

            He who lives on the inside of you.

So many things live on the inside
the more you shine light on the good
it grows
like a beautiful plant by the window
