Lifting a lamp


In the light of morning, 
What took place the day before 
Seems almost incomprehensible, and yet — 
Our awareness of the way these brave souls 
Worked together with our laws to keep us safe 
Will serve as a lamp to light the way 
If and when such darkness falls again. 
"I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
