A short poem I wrote about 5 years ago:
I posted the poem on PoemHunter, a website for poetry and one person asked what the light of that light was. I am not sure, but it felt not like the nicest possible comment on this poem. Anyhow, here is what I think about its color:
The little light is sometimes that divine small yellow spark
that we can find inside when we feel a bit down
It is sometimes the small flame
of budding inspiration to do something beautiful
Sometimes it turns into a fire
of enthusiasm while we are helping someone in a big way
Or sometimes it can be like the white sunlight
spilling its light over to others when we are giving a talk
trying to motivate or inspire others and suddenly find that exactly fitting aphorism
It can take the colours of the rainbow when we are in a poetic mood.
That being, said, it is not the light we can see with our eyes,
it is something we experience with our soul.
There is a little light,
A little light in your heart,
A little light that has tremendous power
If we allow, it can obliterate all darkness.
That little light in your heart
Let it shine.
There is a little light,
A little light in your soul
If we allow, it carries tremendous wisdom
It flashes sparks and thoughts of goodness
That little light in your soul
Let it shine
No matter how dark is the night
Within, you can always find that little light
The light in your heart, the light in your soul
They're always there to brighten your world
These little lights of your heart and soul,
Let them shine.
A little light in your heart,
A little light that has tremendous power
If we allow, it can obliterate all darkness.
That little light in your heart
Let it shine.
There is a little light,
A little light in your soul
If we allow, it carries tremendous wisdom
It flashes sparks and thoughts of goodness
That little light in your soul
Let it shine
No matter how dark is the night
Within, you can always find that little light
The light in your heart, the light in your soul
They're always there to brighten your world
These little lights of your heart and soul,
Let them shine.
