“Light” The light shines down from the heavens above Softly carresing my face with the touch of a dove It surrounds my body, mind, soul Never leaving me empty, always whole It is all I see Within it once more can I be me No shadows shall I fear For I know that my angels are near Within this glorious ray I will see all the good of my day For this light shined not only down But through me and all around This is gift I will cherish all my days I will show those in the darkness of my ways To turn them from their paths of wrongs To learn to sing the lights songs It is my purpose, my right I shall shun all ways of the night In the light I am perfect, I am wise I shall watch on as I see the darkness’s demise. It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that. |

Calm down there, Allan. Wouldn't want to scare anybody, now would you? Very lovely poem you have written, LoneWolf. There's a special quality there when a person can cherish and appreciate light. (without just becoming corny ) I had a dream once that I could fly and I laughed at everyone and kicked them in the back of the head because they couldn't fly too.

I really like the tone of this piece and the way you present light as a gift that empowers you. this was really neat, i look forward to reading more. Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing. |

"In the light I am perfect, I am wise I shall watch on as I see the darkness’s demise." This is beautifully written, LoneWolf. Very nice job on this poem. You described everything so well here.. Nicely done! --Marie subconsciously, i think i can eat so much to make my stomach hurt, instead of my heart. |

Great poem. It reminds me of how I used to write. I really liked this poem. Very well done. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
