Daylight does not last forever

It parts when its time is done

Hides behind the hills of heather

Bows to the slowly setting sun

Casts its final shadows deep

Against the dark of the night

Tis this time, she peacefully sleeps

Til morning dares to share her light

I walk the lands freely, yes, this is my home

Over fields of green, through the plains, I roam

In the hills of the Dakotas, tis where I’m alive

Basking in the sunlight, just hoping to survive

See, the hunters find me an appetizing treat

And it’s only so fast I can run on these feet

So, cautiously I’ll wander, like a lonesome waif

Looking for a place, where I’ll finally be safe

There is a special kind of wonder

In the eyes of a child, with a book

Eager to find out what happens

Ever anxious to take that first look

A place he goes for adventure

Each page, another journey, grand

With his imagination, set free, alive

In a world, only he understands

She recalls the past, so very clearly
Dates and times on which they’d occur
Memories are all she has, kept close
But this day, with me, is simply a blur

She laughs, about times, of long ago
Recalls moments, when life was hard
Until reality greets her, once again
And quickly, she puts up her guard

Refusing to let go, of all she holds dear
Oh, how she wants these moments to last
But I watch, as the days slip by, quicker now
As she stares, out the windows, of the past

There, on the mountains, with the desert below

The Ring of Enchantment shines brightly, aglow

On the hot sand, she stands, awaiting your arrival

Hoping you’ll adapt to the heat, for your survival

A warning, she echoes, though quite unconcerned

Dare not touch the ring, for alas, you’ll be burned

By the power it holds, from the orb’s beaming rays

Perhaps it is better, if you turned, walked away

But, there’s no chance of that, this ring is of gold

You never break the pull, of the sun and her hold
