L is for...
The wave of lengths that I must go
to do this task for Sven
sometimes makes my eyes to hurt
and shade is needed then.

In times of sleeping, I am off
to trail the dreams 'til morn.
The thinness of me can attrite
replacement need, when worn.

One half of me is like a seed
the beauty that becomes.
The other half can guide you to
or maybe guide you from.

Together we are always on
a mind that's deep in thought.
This thing I am, is used each day
sometimes in flash, I'm caught.

I can attract for want of warmth
and yet I can be banned
depending on the look you want
if out of place, a strand.

Necessity, I am your source
my current stands direct
and if you have not guessed it yet
maybe I don't reflect.


What am I?

(big hugggsssssss) Oh my gosh, I too thought along the lines of a lightbulb, yet it also sounds so spiritual somehow, I'm not sure! This is excellent, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
