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.

English: The Sun directly opposite to the moon...

 

 

I’ve seen your face,

a thousand times,

it’s like the setting sun.

I’ve called your name,

have you called mine?

I rise and you are gone.

 

We are so different,

you and I,

you’re up when I am down.

You call, I run,

but where are you,

when I need a friend around?

 

You are the sun,

cowardly cold,

remote, aloof, and chilling.

You’ve hid in shadows,

all of my life,

acknowledgement unwilling.

 

I am the moon,

with passions bright,

your fire sears scars anew.

You wax and wane,

and spin my world,

‘til I don’t know what to do.

 

I’ve seen your face,

a thousand times,

you’re fire and I am ice.

You’ve broke my heart,

so many times –

Let go – I’ve paid the price.

Half Light

Rose

 

 

 

 

 

 

In dawns half-light,

half-dreams are born.

Half-shadow is where,

half-ideas start to form;

plucked from my mind,

they dance in my soul,

to blossom then flourish,

and make me feel whole.

Some like a sunset,

vibrant colours shout out,

others shy rainbows,

conditions coaxed out.

The hardest of all –

a verse like a thorn,

agitation and pain,

deliverance when drawn.

Joy

Ecstasy

Inside my being

A bubbling brook

Chattering sparrows

The joy of the first crocus

The warm blush of the sun

The beauty of a brooding sunset

Deep within the shadows of my mind

There is a desire and longing for rest

To slip from this mortal world

Recline within white clouds

And to leave this land

For one more gentle

Most welcoming

Less demanding

Encompassing

Eternal

Sleep

Joy
