Hidden in Plain Sight

“Are you looking for it,

but don’t know where to find it.

Sometimes the thing you seek

is hidden right in front of you.

Are you looking for it, 

and when 

you don’t find it 

you sometimes 

feel slighted? 

I wonder if 

you seek delight 

in the limelight? 

Are you looking in 

the daylight 

or seek it in the 

moonlight or 

twilight? 

Have you 

run out of gas 

by staring at the gaslight 

or afraid 

of your inner inflight?

Do you look for

 the lighthouse, 

searching for its spotlight? 

Does your day 

sometimes move 

lightening fast with 

highlights or red lights? 

I pray you find it, 

if not use the flashlight 

to clear out the blight

 and when you find it, 

smile and bask in its might.”
