Magnificent sun rises
The glorious winter sun
Of my heart shines
Illuminates grass and blossoms
In stained glass hues
Showers me with soft warmth
Touches my soul
With grace
You are stardust
He hums
You are mine
As much as
I am yours
Shadows around you
Anchor you
Find your balance
See colors as they are
I will watch over you
As long as you breathe
Sing your love
Live your passion
Until your voice
Finds silence
Until the light
Goes out
Nearby a single crow mourns
I choke
Oh, i wasn’t expecting that 😦

Well, what can I say? Sometimes reality brings me to my knees?
Life is short. Live it well.
Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.
Hang on, hang on…
Or,
The poet is a fool?

Nope. I’ve had waffles, ice cream and chocolate topping for breakfast many times! Irish coffee should start a dinner, not conclude it. 🙂

“Shadows around you anchor you.” I like visualizing that, from the Sun’s perspective I assume. Thanks for giving my brain something to play with. Maybe I’ll be able to get something done while it’s occupied.-)

Happy to help you get things done Jim!
Sometime back I was standing in moonlight before sunrise tethered to the flagstone by my shadow. Then daybreak came, erasing it slowly in paler shades until it was gone…and in a surreal nanosecond, before the rising sun gave me another shadow leaning in a different direction, I wondered if what I am could float away.

Belle et touchante variation sur le theme du Carpe Diem ou est-ce la fuite du temps ( en echo a ton poeme ‘Bougainvilliers’) ?
J’aime bien l’ambiguite de personne avec” I will watch over you” et ce qui suit: injonction au lecteur a “cueillir le jour” et/ou meme injonction/promesse pour soi-meme avant qu’il ne soit trop tard…
