Sunset sail
Golden waters shine
Reflecting
Easy times
The wind blowing through my hair
Lets me know freedom

Fire sizzles against waters, vast
A mere reflection of the past
Day goes by, again, returns
Still the fire, there, does burn
***
Sleep now, in the evening glow
This final resting place, you go
So sad we can’t forever stay
Why must it always be this way?
***
When time reminds us, day is done
And with the earth, we become one
Much like the fire that leaves the sky
We will, at last, need say goodbye
Author’s Note: I wrote this poem with a heavy heart. There has been so much sadness this past year or so, and still, it continues. My heart goes out to all who lost loved ones… ❤

I watch the sun set
In a brilliant blaze
Under a sky of stars
I get lost in their haze
Twilight engulfs
My most secret thoughts
As golden rays bury
My mind, distraught
I am captivated
By glorious, rays of light
That take me from morn
Into the night
While I sit here and wonder
What is to be?
When my eyes finally close
What is it I’ll see?
Will my time on this Earth
Be nearer the end?
Or will I still see the light
As thoughts transcend
Higher, like the swing
Which knows no bounds
I fly, for I am no longer
Planted, on the ground

Oh, to lie, on silken sand
To watch your body, ever tanned
Drown my sorrows, at your command
I sink, slowly, into the void.
A fiery heart, to you I’m drawn
The light that shines, erases dawn
Though awake, sleepily, I yawn
Your wiles have been deployed.
Set the night, on full display
Darkness washes day away
You’ve captured me, so I stay
My will has been destroyed.
You toy with emotions, only mine
While in the sand, you draw the line
Dare me to cross your great divine
Tis this night I have fully enjoyed.
