From Distant Shores

Evening arrives waves caress the shoreline We wait here while those on distant shores live, play and work Sunlight gives way to moonlight light to darkness Starlight provides liberation and a brief respite from toil News from distant shores takes time to reach us before it does we will have become ready to receive it our eyes open once more we can see through a brick wall in time From distant shores come tales of hope and tales of desolation The sorrow we hear of is the sorrow we feel the orb which rules the night Keeps shining..........
