Light is Grateful...

They called me the light
and I was bright and white,
I was stiff and stern,
But had lots to yearn.

I went always straight,
and never deviated.
Saw things around me,
But could never be sated.

Why would I be admired,
I thought so always,
For as colorless as I was,
There was no hurrah, no praise...

In a swift turn of events,
I met you that day,
You let me pass through you,
And I wasnt just a ray.

I broke into seven,
And then into more,
I was one just now,
And suddenly galore.

I had not one direction,
I had not one name,
They saw me and cheered,
I knew I had shot fame.

Oh I loved them so much,
I hope I could thank'em,
But before that i must,
Truely thank you, my prism...
