Light Is - Poem by David TaylorLight is the breaking of dawnLight is the load when you are just bornLight is a place without any fearLight is when your lover is nearLight is a heart that's open and freeLight is a place where truth you can seeLight is a feeling that's goodLight is when everything's clear, understoodLight is the absence of darkLight is a summer picnic in a beautiful parkLight is just simply walking on airLight is what makes the shine in her hairLight is what warms and what feedsLight is not having any more needsLight is a magical feeling insideLight is the side of the street to resideLight is always and always will beLight is what joins us, him, you and meLight Is.
