Rays and Shadows

Rays and shadows are indispensable

To make life livable for all

People cannot bear full light nor

They can bear full dark, what

They need is some rays glistening

And some shadows lurking, for

Shadows keep them grounded, while

Rays of light let them levitate

All one needs is the right mix of both, for

One doesn’t want to be glued to the past, nor

Float in the illusion of a dreamy future
