Pouring

Pouring sunlight from the bowl of night
My eyes were misty, my hands like love.

I poured it all, I could not stop it;
Day ran splashing over my feet.

Beautiful write Brian!! I just loved the metaphor you had here. Perhaps this is a personal one, but a lovely one too. Take care always, Chitra
