Autumn lights

On a winter’s night

a tale has begun.

A young girl feels it, when birds

become quiet, and silent… .

One girl stood in autumn for the lights of houses.

She wondered, what could she do, to be more important

than the Sun, Water, Moon & Lightning, she already was.

During all the years, she saw her people

inside the houses at nights.

Nights have been protecting, her.

One day, a light strengthened

the light in her eyes.

She knew then, her wonder

wondered no more.
