Panagiota Romios Poet Rhyme

The Lightness of My Soul

 

Times, too often, I forget, that I was not born to bring
darkness to our planet.

But I am to lighten all souls, who exist upon it.
I do forget, and need to meditate upon it.

Surely, problems are universal and do exist.
No need for us wear chains upon our wrists!

We came from the light, and things of great 
beauty and might.

It’s no help to this world, to make it all
frightening like a windy, stormy night.

I see the long, winding path ahead.
May I fill it with hope and sunshine, till I am dead.
