A Heart of Light in Shadow

In shadows deep, where virtues dwell,
A test of mind, a tale to tell.
To hide your light, to mask your grace,
Requires a heart that knows its place.
The goodness kept within the chest,
Not flaunted forth, but self-possessed,
Shows wisdom’s strength, a thoughtful stride,
A soul that's anchored, not with pride.
Yet more profound, with nobler aim,
Is veiling sins to spare the blame.
To hide the flaws that others bear,
Demands a heart that's true and fair.
For character is forged in this,
In acts of grace, in silent bliss.
To guard a friend from shame's cruel sting,
Is to embrace the best we bring.
So, in the quiet, let us be,
A beacon wrapped in humility.
And let us shield with tender art,
The flaws that break another's heart.
