From the sun it appears
In our eyes, it disappears
Light, it never tires
It there at all hours
Through light we become
Without it, we succumb
To the darkness within
Just under our skin
Thanking light, even once
Sharpened pride blunts
We’re a lucky recipient
A light that is just ambient
Light is a miracle
It is consistent and durable
Traveling that distance
We remove it from existence
