Raven calls magic

From the shimmering colors

As sun strokes dark wings.

“Your answer,” she says,

“Lies in the radiance that

Lives in the darkness.

“To be radiant

In the sunlight requires

No effort from you.

“When your colors shine

Brightly on the darkest night

That is mastery.”

Shine in the darkness

That’s the challange we all face

Be light in the world.
