Casting shadows, you illuminate night

Take away the darkness, shining bright

In the sky above, to the Earth below

Ethereal beams transcend, and glow

Giving me comfort, my fears you allay

Celestial body, in the dark, I can stay

jetty-593401_960_720Sunset beckons the tides to roll

Drawing you deeper into your soul

Reaching beyond the calling of day

Taking you farther and farther away

As nighttime descends upon oceans of blue

Covering waters with darkness anew

You slip past the shadows of ebony night

Awaiting the comfort of morning’s first light

Like clouds floating by, she is windswept

With the flowing air, her dreams well kept

Tranquil waters, soothing, a balm

Bringing her peace of mind, a calm

That joins together, as the night does fall

And nestles her, like a comforting shawl

Gathering thoughts, of life and love

Watching as darkness covers above

Still, over her shoulder she gazes afar

Wondering where her dreams really are

Come sit with me while I relax for a few

I often come here when there’s nothing to do

The old wooden bench is a comforting place

I can sit here for hours, the sun on my face

But today it is different, I’m not here alone

Something was left on this ancient, worn throne

And I sit down beside it, and have a good look

Feel the essence that emanates off of this book

Is it waiting for me, or is it only for show?

Can I touch the yellowed pages, I really don’t know

If I open this book, will it lose all its glory?

Still I wonder, perhaps, if it’s my untold story

Until We Meet Again

sunbeams
The soft whisper

Of a silent hello

Filling my ears

Calling out to me

Letting me know

In this place filled

With so much pain

And confusion, that

You are still here

A comfort in my world

Until we meet again

In yours….
