Life
Lovely is the dawn
That starts my day of wonders
Though fog blurs my view
Waving in serene
Moist grass dripping yet daring
Then cast a shadow
Flows the torrid rays
From blazing sun at zenith
Flowers blossom forth
Behold fields and dale
Yonder are the butterflies
Flitting bough to bough
Hawks soar high azure
My flight never been as sure
Lest I am inured
Zephyr chills my skin
Slowly engulfing within
Fear better unknown
Nimbus fills the sky
Birds too reluctant too fly
Befallen to try
Rain but intervenes
Eroding mountains so steep
Wind keeps changing course
Freezing dewy day
Slumber amidst winter lease
Frogs hibernate deep
Bizarre lonely night
Stars dimming as creatures rest
Poets contemplate
Waxing gibbous scares
Only men with surreal thoughts
As hounds howl at night
Firefly still wanders
Unmindful of deep darkness
Man knows but regrets
