Lightness Abounds.

Goldfinch60



I rise in the early morning,

The darkness surrounds me.

I turn on the screen

And a blank page stares at me.

That is where it starts,

The words in my mind

Flow rapidly onto the light,

The light of the page.

The darkness is soon transgressed

As these words

Show that life is within me,

And the lightness abounds.

    I have to say,
    I haven't read a better one yet.

      Thank you onepauly, you are most kind.

      A fine write again Gold. Argghh! That's me not switching the light on and falling down the stairs these mornings.
      Did an 'idea' light bulb ping in your head? Or did you blow a fuse?!

        No I am just mean and haven't turned the electricity on yet, the laptop is connected to next doors power line.

        May the light stay (whoever pays for it).

        • Goldfinch60

          The light is always within us.

          Long may you emit those rays of lightness creatively illuminating our paths as we seek similar peace and wellbeing.

            Yes and yes again you always say it so perfectly for my brain. I see the light you gave busting from the page, always appreciated.

            Much peace and respect
