Chris Green Poet Rhyme

No Need For the Sun

~

I looked for the sun
on the eastern horizon
Waved off the clouds
that now stood in the way

Whispered my thoughts
through the leaves steady falling
Longed for the beauty
of dawn on display

Then like a dream
found the words you had written
Smiled as my day
once again had begun

Wrote a reply in
poetic lines stating
When you are near
there’s no need for the sun

~

Christine Bialczak November 13, 2019 at 2:15 PM Ironic that I randomly chose this poem of yours to read second! Definitely brought me back from the darker place I was left in. Very nice rhyme! Chris Green November 13, 2019 at 2:21 PM Thanks again Christine. Happy this one added a little light to the mood I assume was from reading Pale Shelter. You will find that this is my normal style, the other was the anomaly. : )

Gershon Wolf November 11, 2019 at 3:20 PM Please, please, please forgive me for what's coming, Chris, but reading this delightful poem, I feel I must state one obvious conclusion: "Dawn, go away. You're no good for me!" ~ Frankie Vallee Chris Green November 11, 2019 at 3:29 PM Loved it my friend, made me chuckle and here I didn't think I was writing about any of the seasons but I guess I did. : )

Sandra Adams November 11, 2019 at 10:14 AM such beauty again flows from your muse... sounds like another cloudy day? it was a beautiful soft rise here this morning, it is supposed to change to gray skies later but it sounds as though you don't need to see the sunrise to enjoy some sunshine...good morning my friend, wonderful penning :) hugs Chris Green November 11, 2019 at 10:50 AM It is a cloudy day but fortunately that doesn't matter to me as long as I have good friends like you. Thank you so very much Sandy.
