Brightly shine, upon her face,
Warming smile, she stands in place;
Eyes closing, Imagining,
Thoughts that fly, remembering,
The sunshine, bouncing off the windows,
Warm spreading, push back shadows.
He’s hiding,
Darkness now recedes away,
Gone the night,
Comes the light,
Feel the piercing of the day,
Beaten back,
Comfort black,
Inside behind dark windows,
Make soundless,
Friend darkness,
Settle into realm of shadows,
He’s hiding,
Never meeting child of day.
