Light splayed on gentle fingertips
shining through the windows of a white house
alone
on a hill ten miles from any town.
White
cotton flows around and around,
and around,
and around,
around,
around,
around,
and around.
Golden threads whirl over and around
blue,
shining
eyes.
Laughter mixes with notes
filling,
dancing,
swirling,
mixing,
creating,
singing,
in the sun dosed air.
A childs voice joins the symphany.
somewhere heavens light,
in the of an angel in
dark night lets
but use
darkling things gol
-den where
wings to reach the sun
does
not
shine.
As the child sings
a darkness
seeps
slowly
across the floor
over the walls
and into
the Child

So very different and unique, that's what I love about the way you write this piece, it's not cliche and doesn't fit into a 'set' category.
