Lightbringer

 

Lightbringer

 

She comes to you in the morning,

To tickle you from dreams

With her warm kiss,

And the light she brings.

 

An embrace that nourishes,

Though too much can burn.

Stare too long at her beauty

And she walks before you ever.

 

She is the light in your day,

And your shadow she casts.

At night she leaves you,

For such is her path.

 

In winter snows she blinds,

Yet weakened in season.

The spring she brings

For the world has had its rest.

 

She wears rainbows through thin cloud,

Or crimson through thick smoke.

Her finest raiment worn at dawn and dusk,

Who is it she has adorned for?

 

She has never answered question,

Though she was asked through the ages.

She simply is,

What more need have we than that?
