I am (Lyrics)

I am a carrier of light.

Light like the Milky Way that’s sprayed across the night.

Light like the beam of light that bursts into your room.

Light like the golden fingers that make flowers bloom.

I am a carrier of light.

Light like the bright albedo on snowflakes of white

or the yellow beaks of swallows, struggling to be fed

or the shooting stars, like tadpoles, swimming overhead.

I’m a six pointed star,

like trillions, scintillating bright

and together we are

glints in the diamond mine of night

and together we stand

like lion legions of the light

with shining spears we rain like tears

and, against darkness,fight.

I am a carrier of light.

Light like the blazing sword held in the hand of right.

Light like the wisdom that illuminates your mind.

Light like the ecstasy that, in two lovers, shines.

I am a carrier of light.

Light like the golden tail of fireworks in flight.

Light like words understood by one who could not read

or the scattered, feathered heads of dandelion seed.

I’m a six pointed star,

like trillions, scintillating bright

and together we are

glints in the diamond mine of night

and together we stand

like lion legions of the light

with shining spears we rain like tears

and, against darkness, fight.
