How can the sea,

leave the shore?

How can the moon,

the stars ignore?

 

How can I live,

without my heart,

and grieve for you,

whilst we’re apart?

 

How can my sun,

no longer shine?

I will not see,

sunrise sublime.

 

How can the word,

without the book,

the empty nest,

without the rook.

 

How can the empty

space be filled?

By graduations,

new lives rebuild.

Plumping pillows

Inviting sleep so

Lay down your head

Let dreams dance

Over your soul

Waltzing with the angels ‘til

Sunrise wakes slumber

Sunrise 2

Sunrise 2 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the day is over,

the work has all been done,

the twilight is upon us,

moon outstrips setting sun.

 

I take my rest with comfort,

to reflect on days well spent,

pay homage, offer gratitude,

lessons learned in the event.

 

With stillness and with clarity,

with wisdom and with heart,

I think of all my good friends,

who show me where to start.

 

The lessons, I have newly learned

from them, they show the way,

inspiring birth of sunrise

springs forth valiant new day.
