Call Me Light

I know just when the sun rises
call me Light

when my head lifts
above the horizon of my pillow
when my white sheets
ball up like cumulus clouds

when I brighten someone's day
sometimes I glow
when I'm warm and sweet
when I'm confident and on fire
when I'm illuminating the room
call me Light

I know when to be a prism
when to refract frowns into smiling faces
when to lift chins and bend rainbows
when to bring back childhood joy
like light up sneakers

there is a happy hue, in hello
an orah of optimism after an affirmation

the lucky Birthday flame
the answered prayer candle
the star atop a tree
that is me!

call me Light
