I am the Light
To the man by my side
So he is free to see the canvas
To fly to lands far-off
And be with friends nearby

To our girls so alike
I am the Light
Singled by fate
Descended by boys
Surrounded by music
So little time to rest

To our boy a man
I am the Light
His love of nature
Is surpassed only
By his love of technology
And a growing warmth for opera

To our grandsons
One two and three
I hope I am the Light
Their mothers shine forth
I can only watch
For they have a mother too

To my pupils
Confusion in their minds
I try to be the Light
With which to reach places
They otherwise may not find

And so to me
Too often I forget
That I also have a path to follow
So at night, when all is quiet
I steal a look in the glass
And see that also for me
I am the Light
