YOU ARE IMPORTANT

Said the setting Sun to the lamp,

Now it is your turn to glow,

soon it will be dark and damp.

So spread light steady and slow.

With the Universe. He created me.

My strength is the strength 'to be'.

The earth sleeps and wakes with me.

But in the dark they need thee.

Your steady light gives courage

not to falter, not to be afraid.

You are not small, he said.
