Inspired by the Lights The blooming of spring flowers A wisp of cloud floating by The beaming of a full moon A starlight’s twinkle in the sky A small puppy’s wagging tail As he’s tugging on your cuff The soft purring of a kitten When you’ve scratched it just enough The wide smile of a child When they’ve just won a race Their parents tears of joy As they look upon that face The soft curve of naked skin Or the passion of a kiss The warm feeling when in love A sweet taste of sinful bliss The glory of the colors As we watch the setting sun The deepening of shadows Once the day is done These life illuminations Touch our feelings, make us care Move us to pixel, pen or brush To recreate this love we share So open wide your heart and eyes Imagination can’t be bound For in these lights around you Inspiration can be found
