It is a room of lights —
vessels of lights
strings of lights
soft lamps
It is a room of color —
reds, mostly; also gold
and greens and oranges,
blues and purples
It is a room of creativity —
Ideas have been born here,
and children
and gifts and poems
and ardent visions
So we return here
to be inspired
to find direction
and regeneration
To feast our eyes
and rest our minds
reset our souls
before we venture forth again.
