THE SUN

The sun, a fiery globe, slips slowly into the horizon
The clouds part, darkness now imminent 
The ending of this day …. marks the beginning of a welcomed revitalization
The ground hog burrows, as birds settle into their nests. 

The day is done, a new day dawns.
Deadlines met, ideas reborn 
The dogs, the cats ….. lie comfortably in their beds 
Bring down the curtain, turn down the sheets… night has fallen.

Awaken, renew …. the sun begins to rise.
A glimpse of a fiery storm …. peeking out from the horizon
Where will this new day eventually lead?
No clouds in the sky …. alas, pure perfection.

The orange of the globe, against the waves of blue
Violet & indigo …. a mix of hues
The ideal of wonderment …. of reflection 
Mother Nature offers  a universe filled with miracles. 

In astonishment, we look upon her radiance
With delight, we bathe in the heat of her rays
The rings of a tree, the ebb and flow of the tides, as well
Leave us enchanted, nearly hysterical.
