THROUGH SUNRISE AND SUNSET

 

A poem, a poem, a poem,

A poem I shall write;

'Bout how thing's are a goin'

Through morning, noon, and night.

 

I wake just after sunrise,

To greet a grateful day,

(Unless it is a Monday),           

I remember to take praise.

 

"Appreciate, Appreciate,

Appreciate", I say,

"Beauty is a vision,

I hope to gain today".

 

When noontime comes around.

My tummy makes a sound ;

I keep on thinkin', how Id be eaten'

If munchies could be found.

 

As I eat, I stop to think,

And quiet down my wants.

I see how nice it is, to feel the bliss,

Of peace set in my heart.

 

So soon its time for sunset,

When moonshine is the light;

Too quick my vision quiets down,

To sleep through out the night.

 

In my dreams I galavante,

Through a world of lucid fancy;

In deep sleep, I feel the peace,

Of death, though not as chancy.

 

Once again its time for morning,

The yesterdays gone past;

Today brings hope of vision,

Of Beauty that will last.
