: Light by estory

Imagine sunflowers
Opening, beginning to dream
Light:
Seeds of the stars,
Roots in the sky,
Aurora on the longest night.

Illume. Illumine. Illuminate
A dance of light,
Until you have stamped the puddles out.

Press your face against the windowpane
And dream you are goose
Flying north to Great Bear Lake,
To days where the sun never sets.

Author Notes
This is a simple poem about optimism, about hope. The central image is light, and I wanted to make it obtuse enough, abstract enough, for anyone to relate to. We all have those days, those rainy days, where we sit inside moping. Look out of the window at the light, let your spirit take flight. estory
