A Cure

I can feel it coming down, like the sun --- No matter how I try, I never get much done --- The stars are out in full celestial display --- But some times the planets get in the way --- In the distance I can see the moon waxing cold --- It brings some comfort to a body grown too old --- Somehow when I am silent and stand so very still --- The cosmos is like a cure for what makes me ill.

Yes, the moon, stars, and planets have a way of drawing us.. Sheol, thanks so much for the comment on my poem "Decorate". May your gifts be expanded in the following years and touch on the lives of many in positive way. Keep the creative pen flowing and the paint canvas decorated. Sara
