Day Rolling On

Let the heat from 
     the sun 
   guide you through 
the day 
Only a brief song 
   before the silence
Fireflys will light up the nigth
Until morning 
                   when the next day 
 rolls out its carper of green 
along with the gogeous colors
    of the many flowers 
which line your path 
    Take joy in this brief moment
   Before the cycle of light 
and shadow 
   Pulls you to the earth 
 Another day rolling on 
  Feel the peace which comes 
from and acceptance 
   of endings
