Light

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. 
Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

Wisdom

I take the word   
I salute you
Women and men
As I seek to heal

I will capture
The colour, the light
The soul of the world
And to violence
I say no
I am the Queen
I say so

Leaves fall
People talk
Colonialism
Upon Capitalism
Upon Fatalism

But I give you the colour
The colour of light
Upon the path
Planet Earth

To you
I take the word

I salute you
Women and men
As I seek to heal
