I love the world
Even as it is
With the cruelty
And darkness
For without that
How would I know
To appreciate
My scant patches of light

Yes it is all relative, the scant patches can be bright and promising in relation to the darkness... love the use of the word "scant", gives the sense that the light as well as the promise is fleeting and even though they may be, they are enough
lovely stuff Ashley
