Literature Text

I fear neither reaper nor demon

For in this valley

The valley in the shadow of death

I walk next to you

I and all my sisters


You are our lighthouse and fortress

Your eyes are keen

Your heart is vigil

And your hands are firm

And by your side we are safe


I fear no beast or foe

Neither storm nor thunder

Bear down on me and my sisters

For by your side

We are kept forever safe.

Poem and heart's prayer inspired by the wonderful visual artist @deezaster and her heartbreakingly beautiful digital image
