I am light in everything i do
In Everything i say
Everywhere i go
My light is all that i know
I am not afraid of the dark
As i shine brightly
In myself i am home
—Timothy Charles Carter
Ivan Mar 18
the stars that shine
do so because of the darkness
that surrounds them

I can make you shine...
Tamara Walker Mar 2022
I don’t care anymore
I just want to see you glow
And then explode
Become a star.
Madeon Feb 21
you are not the darkness
you once wandered through
you are the light
that learned to shine
Antonia Feb 2
and just like summer in July
you hold my hand
each time I try
to overcome my deepest fears
to laugh
to cry

and if we fail,
you, us or I,
our love still feels
like summer in July

you carry sunshine everywhere
you lift, support and dare
to wake up smiling everyday
in spite of all,
the world could say

you shine so bright,
your love is light,
with you,
I see the hope in sight

"You're the brightest light, shining with all your might,
A sweet bundle of joy, a heart full of delight.
Your laughter is music, a symphony so fine,
A precious gift, a treasure that's truly divine.


With a smile so contagious, you light up the way,
A diamond in the rough, with a heart that's strong and brave.
Your life is a canvas, painted with vibrant hues,
A masterpiece unfolding, with each new dawn's dew.


May heaven's blessings surround you, may love be your guide,
May your heart remain pure, and your spirit abide.
May you soar on eagle's wings, may your dreams take flight,
May your life be filled with wonder, and your soul shine bright.


Little Elijah, sweet one, you're a gift from above,
A precious treasure, sent with endless love.
May your life be a reflection, of the love that you share,
May your heart remain open, and your spirit always fair."

Shine forth like the sun
Radiant beams and glory streams
And hope springs forth like the dawn
Your golden glow giving glimpses
Of a gift greater than any on earth
Life eternal and a new birth
Shine and let your light lift
The mind and body and soul
With praise and prayer
Pierce the very heart of darkness
Sing and dance with every fiber
And this Adoration we will employ
Till the very rocks cry out with joy
Warm the earth and hearth and home
May the glow follow wherever we roam
All the nations on earth will see
And many people will come to believe
From miles around they will flock
To be close to you and take stock
Of their own light that lives within
Where they end, He will begin
So, shine your light, your God-given sun
Giving thanks and praise to the Holy One
Bekah Halle Oct 2024
Opportunity after opportunity
some could say leads to discontinuity
or spontaneity?
Can it lead to deity?
Frailty surely will come
But we can spark that with
originality?
Frivolity can be a gateway,
To birthing new possibility.
Imagine the ingenuity!
Peter Beda Nov 2024
she is jazz
she is freedom
she’s the sun

maybe she’s
the one

her joy is bright
and cheerful

beyond the clouds
invisible to the eye
she hides her heart
and smiles

waiting for a sign
or for me
to make up my mind

would you rather dream
sleepwalking
or live your dreams
awake?

she asks,
knowing the answer
is in the question

another life lesson
a chance
to feel everything
again

patience, my dear
love is only
the absence
of fear

and magical things
happen to men
with beards

we can escape 
to the sun

or look inside
to find beauty

in ourselves
before it’s gone

Turn it on, turn it up, let's start tonight
Spirit grow, let it flow, we are the light
So let us shine and let us stand
We representin' Son of God and Son of Man
How you gonna shine for the world to see
Are you gonna let that light go free?
We are radiating illuminating
We love in a world used to hating
We were made to spread love like fire
Testify and, by your life, you'll inspire
A turnaround a turning back
Of hearts astray again on track
So, the question is this: the question remains
How can I shine in my own special way
And add a little color to a world painted gray?
How can my light, however flawed
Reflect the most perfect light of God?
Take your little light and offer it up
As a sacrifice of love and praise
He will bless the gift and multiply
Do what you can and let God amaze
On every occasion use the gifts you're given,
They were made to be shared not hidden
