Darkness To Light

Darkness' terrors haunt and scare her First rays of light Banish fright

So true. How afraid of the dark we all are.

Weird how when I was a child the dark terrified me, but in the light of day everything seemed okay again. This poem makes sense to my childhood self, for sure.

---and your childhood self (and mine and all others) is, in many ways, our truest self, methinks. (As we parents and teachers learn again and again, you can't b.s. a child!). :) gw
