Waking got up with the sun, and walked across the sky/He shimmered through the whooshing air, there espied me with his eye/Stepping through my window pane, he woke me gently, called my name/Praises be to God the Father, The Spirit and the Son/I have woken and begun, to sing praises to them One.
Sleeping rose up with the stars, and used moonbeams for a slide/He bridged the gap between us and came softly to my side/ Telling me his brother left, he sang to me, with his sweet breath/I became oblivious, and entertain myself/ Visions wild, with passions sweet, stir my mind, unique to sleep.
Laughing traveled on a cloud, from white towers to the ground/ bringing gifts from God in heaven, here to take the hearts turned leaden/ He invited Joy to join him, on his cotton magic carpet/ on a whim, I jumped in, and flew to his parapet.
Weeping hailed from Hades, bringing sadness in her palms/dressed in dismal shades, I ran from where she trod/ But a glimpse of her I saw, having dwelt with Sons of life/ I could not keep her long, in me was little strife.
The first half I wrote March 15, 2011 and the second half on February 4, 2012.
That first half was the beginning of my love affair with poetry
Joy is me, that's my middle name (literally)
