Choosing Light

Once more the dark succumbs to light as dawn reveals its power, again returning Mankind’s sight as all arise from darkness hour. This daily conquest of Earth’s veil revives the land at nighttimes’ cost as dark submits, once more to fail, and sinks below horizons lost. But every dog must have its day and nighttimes’ dog is darkest night for when the light has failed its stay nighttime again will win this fight. So thus the sands of time persist as sure as daytime follows night, and all we touch by fate is kissed no matter how we choose to fight. When darkness steals the light of day, when lost and blinded lacking sight, its then we seek horizons new where we may find a glimpse of light. As dawn awakes with the rising sun, its healing powers transform each day, then even fate can be undone if in its light you choose to stay. Ivor G Davies
