A CANDLE IN THE DARK

What is the Significance,
in the Uniqueness that you are Employed,
Whereforth cometh your usefulness,
so that your essence is Enjoyed.

How is it that you're enveloped,
with such a magnitude,
That causes such a propensity,
without a solicitation to mood.

And why is it that you're Utilized,
to bring warmth and a ray of light,
So that the travelers thereby,
do not trample in the night.

How goes the jungle screams,
when there is no piercing view,
For even the owl in his demeanor,
is lost without a sight of you.

And even within your stature,
a statement is made of worth,
Because your status is of Necessity,
for your presence is always good enough.

And because of your Purpose,
Publicity becomes a must,
Because there is no visibility,
without your position to readjust.

Oh how so Wonderful it is,
to have you in the room,
For all would be a haze of glare,
in a tomb without any gloom.

By your light direction is found,
within your role as a guide,
For a many would be lost in derision,
without the glow which you provide.

Because you are the epitome,
of a solstice without any spark,
And I appreciate your embodiment,
for you are as A Candle In The Dark.
