From the East To the West

From the East One hopes for a feast A dream one waits to come true Longing for the light to loom And expectations to fruit. In the East One looks for that same feast For no matter where you are In the East the sun always rises. From the West One hopes for a rest A grace after the life of the day And dream dreams when one lays That ask to make way. In the West One looks for that same rest For no matter where you are In the West, the sun always sets. By CarolineCecile - 01/05/12
