Welcome to the Light A Candle in the Dark website. Light A Candle in the Dark is a poetry website created to share my poetry and the poetry of others who have a love for reading and writing poetry. It is a place where poetry is loosely defined. It's a simple joy of the written or spoken word. It is not a forum for discussing technique or the contents of the poetry posted herein. Welcome and enjoy! Pat (aka P. Newman-Harris)

Happy Holidays to All
Wishing everyone who has listened to what I have shared through the
written word, a very special holiday season. I hope this year that I,
in some way, have offered inspiration where it was need. I hope
thoughts were provoked and lives were changed. I am not a preacher or a
teacher, just someone who wishes to inspire by sharing my thoughts. I
am far from perfect, and a lot of what I write also helps me to continue
striving for that mark. For me, writing heals the wounds that life
inflicts. I hope and pray it does the same for you.
