FEAR




You 
Afraid
Run
from monsters
In your darkness
You
Trip on your light
Where do you fall?


Happy Halloween

    Oh this gives me pause, especially the idea of tripping on our own light as we run from the darkness.......good one, Myrna.

    The sense of "your darkness" if splendid... isn't it all our own creation?

    I love this - the mere idea of 'in your darkness' and the image of 'tripping on your light' speaks volumes ❤️ Beautifully executed.


    Lots of love,
    Sanaa

    tripping on your light, perhaps it is in fear we forget we are light.

    Wow! Tripping on your light as you run from darkness: that is profound. An awesome little piece, Myrna. As Sherry writes: it does give one pause.

    Yes, no reason to be all worked up in life! Distractions will always take chunks of one's time. Good reminder Myrna!
