Light

I will tie starlight into my curls
And paint my face in the deepest hues of garnet, ruby, and sapphire
I will weave a gown from moonlight
And trim it with lace born of pale sea foam and iridescent spider webs
I will wear slippers shaped from silvery moss
And adorn my throat in strings of silver and moonstone
I will pull light from the edges of the darkest shadows
And wrap it around myself like a cloak
I will pull the reflected starlight from the water
And craft a crown of dancing luminescence
I will present myself beneath the radiant moon in this glowing finery
And with Her blessing, I will shine as a reminder to all 
That there is no darkness without the light
