In the ocean of an
evening
Keeping watch along
the shore
Between light and
dark
Constellations, and
so much more
Like a canvas
painted
In shades of grey
Out from the shadows
So close, yet far
far away
A handful of
thoughts
Tossed into the
nighttime sky
Grow old in the
making
Forgotten, by and by
Watching time pass
by the window
Day says goodnight
and departs
Letters in a bottle
drift away
Oceans
of thought impart
So, I try to catch
the light
But it gets away
I keep thinking
Will it come back
another day?
Stars poke slowly
out
Pinholes on a
charcoal slate
Floating in the
nightfall
Water in the waves
won't wait
Frosty moonlight
descends
Breath hangs in the
darkening night
Shadows the twilight
won't free
Bow to an awakened
first light
Morning flies on,
the stars softly sigh
Raise a hand
across your eyes
Pause, then suddenly
realize
It's the dawning of
the day
