one ray the more

what is 
dark

but the absence of

light.

what is   color

but,

 light in the dark.

what are we

but,

sundials and gravestones.

This little poem took me on a journey right back to my Great Uncle's garden, where there was a sundial and a bird bath. I haven't thought about that for years, so I will thank you for a happy memory that your words have revived.
