Morning sun sneaks in

Infringing upon curtained windows

Softly nudging, awakening

Bodies bundled in sleep

Barren trees reach out

Searching for the sunlight’s warmth

Autumn slips away

Sunlight Fades

life, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, sunlight, Sunlight Fades, thoughts

Standing by an open window
Soaking in the warmth and air
Breezing through my thoughts
And wondering just where

The hours have gone, passing by
Vanishing much too swiftly
No chance to get them back, you see
They left me here, too quickly

So I lean back and soak it in
As daylight turns to shade
Press my face against the glass
And watch the sunlight fade…

A Side Note

I decided to take a small break from writing, yet I find myself doing just that. This time I had my camera so I could document all that I have been missing.

I spent yesterday enjoying life….

snappys

I watched the snap dragons open sleepy eyes, a blast of color filling my garden.

cardinal

I listened as a cardinal sang its sweet song upon my fence.

sunlight

I looked up and basked in the glow that warms the land.

I cooled down with the cold, creamy goodness of frozen confection

my feet

I relaxed, breathing in the air surrounding me, taking it all in, not wanting to let go

I watched as the Sun tucked herself in for the night

I watched as the Sun tucked herself in for the night

I sat before the glowing embers of fire, contained within, leaping out

I marveled at the brilliant orb, a Supermoon, filling the sky with light

I marveled at the brilliant orb, a Supermoon, filling the night sky

And I contently laid my head upon my pillow, in hopes of awakening to greet a new day

I took time out from my busy day to simply enjoy and to thank God for all the beauty that quietly surrounds me, but I fail to admire because I am too busy doing everything else.signature

Tranquility

Night Owl Poetry, peace, poems, poetry, sunlight, Tranquility

Cool mountain breezes
caress the morning dew
that glistens on the grass
gently blowing in the wind

I am greeted by the kiss
of sunlight sweeping
across my face, of warmth
taking hold of my entirety

The quiet that embraces
the land surrounding me
broken only by the sound
of my own breath
