Life's Grand Rhythm

Golden sun, the days begin anew,
Morning whispers, painting skies so blue,
Dreams stir gently, hope comes into view,
World awakens, promises mine,
Life’s sweet song forever rings fine.

Shadows creep across the darkened floor,
Moon dances, secrets knock at the door,
Night’s hush settles, stars inviting more,
Velvet night, peace we seek to grasp,
Calmness found within a gold clasp.

Through the seasons, time will always flow,
Petals open, breezes warm and slow,
Stories written, in rain or sun’s glow,
Our trodden paths we learn and hope,
Love’s roots shall always deeply cope.

Our laughter is adrift in breezes,
The heart finds moments that always please,
Kindness is sown, bearing fruit with ease,
Each day cherished, as worries cold,
Grace helps to fulfill lives, be bold.

Your future beckons with dreams to spin,
The journeys wait where courage begin,
All fear dissolves, letting hope rush in,
Chapters written from the cool heart.
Boundless enjoyment shall soon chart.
