Between Rays of Light

Poems

By Benjamin Lashar Hoch

Overview


This book is a reflection of the interplay of light and dark, joy and despair, gratitude and desire, and all of the colors of life. We are all a manifestation of love and the creative forces of the Universe as expressed in our uniqueness, desires, interconnection with one another and the world around, the gifts we each possess and bring to community, our spirituality, the works of science, religion, art, and music, and whatever else may come to be. We walk together through this world into an unknown but forever potent future. On the path we find ourselves in darkness, bathed in afternoon sunlight, or somewhere in between. Regardless, our own light, along with the light of others, can come forth to reveal the beauty of all things. The words within this collection of poems are an expression of one individual’s evolving realization of this reality.
