False Light

Any light
Save for suns
And their reflections
Is false light
Save for all the stars
Whose light reaches us so ancient
Save for the impromptu smile
And save for those acts so kind
Save for heroism
Save for charity
Save for times of turned cheek
And save for times of
Remembrance
For in all these
We are bright

The trust light is in goodness. A very lovely thought

[Alexa Apothic Red]

Oh, this is lovely! What an original, thought-provoking notion. I really liked it and also drew a metaphorical comparison to people/loves in our lives.. about how anyone but our original true love/intended soulmate is a false light as well.. everyone pales in artificial comparison to that one great soul meant only to burn in synergistic light with our own.

If I may say so, Alexa, with my tongue planted firmly in my cheek...
Your review is much more poetic than the piece.
But, I'm truly pleased you enjoyed this.

[Alexa Apothic Red]

Oh, K, you're much too kind.. I appreciate that, but I honestly loved your piece as all of your writing.. brilliant.

[Nipplegrinder]

Thank you, dear girl.

[Delmar Cooper]

We upon whom the light has dimmed salute you.

Thank you, Coop. Stop by always.
