The beauty of sunrise I behold
The beam of freedom it reflects, on my skin I fold
As I wrinkle my eyes within, it shines through ablaze
The natural light that means everything

The light that shines supreme
Leads with justice and behold, the king on his throne supreme
As I flow in the light astray, my flaws dominates my act
In the land I came to see

Ohh! What a light that shines ablaze, yet it looks so dark within
Behold the days I crawl a saint, on my mother's breast I suck
The innocent of a lovely flower
Grows to sting and scratch

The light takes turn with the dark
Though it shines and the rays foreseen
And we toil in the land we knew
But cherish the one's unseen, as darkness crawls to the heart of men
Like a river side polluted by dump
My heart in the rays of light foreseen
The deeds of man in the rays reject

Ohh! What a life as smooth as silk in the dark I stroll astray
Till infinity I toil and swaet
In the dark as deam as black
My mind as dark as dead
Forever I toil in tears
The life we came to see

Though my pilot awaits, and I shall see them face to face
I pray my deeds be cleans
In the light I seek again
Forever I wish to cherish
The love that comes within, for my redeemer leavet

Light and darkness

This is a two opposing force that work interchangeably to make our day, light signifying day while darkness signifies night, but in the poem the poet which is me of course uses light to represent a supreme being which is God as seen the stanzas two line two.


Though in stanza one the poet wakes up in the morning to see a beautiful sunrise which is in stanza one line one "The beauty of sunrise I behold" and how the sunrise reflects on his skin and the light even shines through his eyes and make him to wrinkle his eyes.


But in stanza two that light is being viewed as a supreme being which is God that rules over earth with supremacy, but in stanza two line 3-4, the poet tries to follow the light but is confused by darkness which made him sin and gone short of the glory of God.

Stanza 3, the light shines in his glory but because of sin the poet believes that he's still in the dark, also the poet expressed the days he was a child sucking his mother's breast so innocent and full of potential yet he grew up to cherish the sin of the world.


Stanza 4, the light taking turns with darkness is like day and night and we have seen the good works of God but cherish the evil in our heart, "by a river side polluted by dump" is the heart of men overshadowed by sin in the eyes of God (rays of light foreseen) and during judgement we will be rejected and cast into hell (The deeds of man in the rays reject).


Stanza 5, those living in the light enjoys the smoothness of it while those in the dark (sin) toil in sweat and tears, "my mind as dark as dead" means that the heart of men is filled with sin and the wages of sin is dead.

Stanza 6, pilot in this case is our creator and seeing them face to face is on judgement day, here the poet seeks the light again and promised to cherish the light for his redeemer (Jesus) leavet.


The poem was written and composed by me @radleking and I hope you all understand it's meaning and of course enjoy reading it, I will like to invite @rasel72, @pijushmitra & @mou.sumi
