As Day Draws Nigh

A river goes roaring by

Rushing swiftly on

A tree reaches for the sky

Yearning for the sun

A cloud floats into horizon’s eye

Dancing and dodging

Having its fun

Birds soar on the wind’s whispered sigh

Drifting and gliding

Until they are done

A mountain looms over all so high

Guarding and watching

As day draws nigh.

 

This Day is Done

Where is my future?

I simply ask

This life that belonged

To the days of my past

Yesterday beckons

Strong is it’s lure

Calling me back

To where I’m not sure

Chains of regret

Are making me slip

Loosing my foothold

Sliding a bit

Life is still out there

Calling to us

So, take my hand

And never let go

Keep going forward

No matter how slow

For across the horizon

Of yesterday’s sun

‘Tomorrow’ is the promise

This day is done!
