Aug 2010
The dawn breaks over the horizon
and a new life has been born.
As easy as the morning begins the day
the birth begins the life.

The stillness is disturbed abruptly
and a baby cries out with its new found life.
A flower begins to grow with that morning light
just as a growing soul brightens two peoples love.

The high noon sun beats down hard
as hard as a teens heart that's held by pressure.
This time begins the feeding of all
especially the feeding of the ones mind with knowledge.

Then the sun slowly diminishes into the land
like a book, finished or not, it is slowly closed.
Surrounded by darkness, the sun goes down
but the soul, it rises, eliminating the heavens.
