A Poem by Yanina McKnight

We cannot and must-not see through the light. For the light is too bright, burning the interior of our minds. The precious capsule that contains the energy we breathe. Our wings fly through this thick smoke we call our lives. Taped and torn, but never fallen.
This fall brings burning turmoil within the leave-less branches of the trees. Seasons switch upon so quickly, the blink of an eye is as quick as a walk. Backwards, we see the dark turn to light.

Light and darkness. We must dance in both. I believe people who seek the light of peace and joy. Can do okay. Darkness can overtake us with ease. I saw both places. I believe when we expand our vision and forget we are not so important. Our actions and words to make the world around us better. We will know dark and light places. Another powerful poem. Making the old man think too hard. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
