It is in times of darkness
That the brightest splashes of light are seen
Just as the dreamer is awakened
He sees the brilliance of day
Amazed by the perpetual play of ideas
That for a moment master his consciousness
Just as waking life is fired
By sparks of imagination
It is always the inspired self
That sets the inner life aglow
No creation would happen without intervention
And creativity is an affirmation
Those splashes of light we require more
To master our destiny
And be wiser
Each passing day.
