running with the light

Cresting a swell of prairie at dawn
I see my shadow race ahead
across a wheat field's stubble,
leap the hedgerow with its hidden creek,
carelessly ignore the interstate's traffic,
and make a dash for the horizon.

I'm drawn long,
stretched thin,
as shadow and shade,
still running with the Light.

When even the shadows can heal

           Yet more than ever believers were added to the Lord, great numbers of both men and women, so that they even carried out the sick...
