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 ~

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!

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. : )

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

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. : )

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

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.
