"At any moment in life, we can change or stay the same." Quote by _Constance I emerged from dark into light, when I was so sick years ago: it was an epiphany bright; the understanding made me glow. The illumination divine, I emerged from dark into light: and needed to make changes twine; it would be a battle and fight. I had been sleeping like Snow White, and needed to set bounds and lines: I emerged from dark into light; saying bye to friends who were vines. It was time to see life's colors, to find my muse and true insight: to paint words with watercolors; I emerged from dark into light. _______________________ August 14, 2022 Poetry/Quatern/Seeing Life's Colors Copyright Protected, ID 08-1480-069-14 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Premiere contest, The Epiphany That Changed Your Life Forever, sponsor, Chantelle Anne Cooke, Judged 09/05/2022 Third Place
