When God said, "Let there be light," Nature obliged, with the sun. And in the farthest fringes of deep space, galaxies spun. Ethereal rays of light imbue magic to each day. And color cottony clouds as dawn chases night away. The Sun's coronal aura harbors hope's eternal spark. And illuminates the sky, throwing daggers at the dark. Darkness is forged from shadows, where nothing's quite what it seems. And yesterday's promises are scribbled on dying dreams. You're born a creature of light; that's why you crave it so much. And when sunlight reaches you, your heart revels in its touch.
