Glow

Written Fall 2008

I am light

Blooming outwards like stained glass liquified

And bursting forth

A sparkler held by the gentle hand of a child

Awakened by hope

And dancing upon a shining star

In the deep, velvet black of night

Author's Note

An autobiographical epiphany, if you will...

Reviews

"I am light...
In the deep, velvet black of night"

[Everchanging Disaster]

This made my eyes water a bit, I think mostly because i already knew this-and I'm so happy that you know it too. You are my star!
