The Touch of the Spirit

The sun was setting in the distance and shone in those dark, lost eyes.  The sea gently rippled in the peace of the evening.  If you were to look into those eyes you would see the sadness behind the smile as they looked across the vast expanse of water, feeling so alone. 

Sparkling rays touched and broke into the waves and were carried to the shore.  The lights flashed into a spectacular dance that was watched in wonder.  Gradually the light reflected within him and a spark fired his Spirit, the child wiped away a tear, took the hand of Jesus and they walked across the sand together into the sunset.
