Description Light


When you're an embryo, you evolve from it
Light is your universal origin

When you're a foetus, you're shunned from it
Light is just in your imagination

When you're a newborn, you're thrown into it
Light is your first outside perception

When you're an infant, you seem to radiate it
Light is what your smile conjures

When you're a toddler you're attracted by it
Light is a dazzling discovery

When you're a small child, you chase after it
Light is your playful companion

When you're a big child, you bathe in it
Light is what shines on you outside

When you're a teenager, you just ignore it
Light is the opposite of darkness

When you're a young adult, you know of it
Light is the colour of love

When you're an adult, you're aware of it
Light is what you strive for

When you're an aged person, you long for it
Light is what you blindly remember

When you're a dying person, you walk into it
Light is your eternal salvation

When you're born, alive and dead, you feel it's there
Light is what's inside and around you
Light is what you are
Light is what is you

I saw this poem on one of Robert-Kim-Karen's photo, and I thought I will come and say 'hi'
thi is a very good poem, well thought out, the repetition makes it very powerful and the conclusion is lovely
the repetition of "when, it, light" is like a chain that leads you to your destination

I like how you did the progression from young to old, and paralled it with each phases perceptions. And the final destination is a nice place.
