Walk in the darkness
Mark cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
Walk in the darkness
As a star and light
Let a spectrum of colors
Fill their eyes until they shine
As stars in the dark
And walk across
A multiverse of lights
And fall upon the sun
And rise to the moon
Cover the skyline
With lights in the night
And begin again
Birthed in a universe
With children of the earth
Natural of light and color
As the sun rises
And the moon falls from view
And return a light
As it sets across
The vast darkness
That is filled and lit
Of lights and the night
