Shine, sparkle, shimmer
Illuminate the night

Flare!
Glare, brilliant white

Blue sky is within sight

Breach, losing grip
Blind, sliding, hiding
And feet begin to s

You're right Vince, this was worth reading in its original form. Great structure to this, a lot of good dramatic word play! Congrats on POTD.
