Every time we learn
A candle is lit
Against the darkness
Every time we teach
A Sun is lit
Burning that darkness
Tag: light
The sun has set
Sun set a while ago

A Seattle Morning
High clouds greet the morn
Birds call, seemingly calmer
More subdued, perhaps
Sound absorbed by clouds
Gray skies soothe me, though
Relieved of garish sunlight
Evening Lightening
Flickering briefly
Lightning burns across the sky
Jagged movements blur
Updated: spell check got me, changing “lightning” to “lightening”
Today
We walked into the cafe
An older couple entered
Through my held door
Hand in hand
Talking to friends
Amidst the youth
And their frantic keystrokes
Lost to the now
Rain’s changing
Drippy drizzle
To wind blown torrent
And the light moving
Across the sky
Puddles forming upon
Untended tables
The importance of the arts
Each creative act
Exploring beauty’s boundaries
Brings more light to being
A cup; empty and full
Overflowing with sunlight
A cup: empty and full
Two sides of the same
Moment
Morning moves forward
Morning moves forward
Dawn’s transition fades to light
Life, again, renewed
Rain upon the skylight
Inside these blank walls
Rain falls upon the skylight
I stare at a screen
Looking at the Dawn
Dawn rises quickly
