Revolving Ritual

A yellow glow 
Is packing ready to go 
Leaving the work space 
Building its case 
Finished the committed job 
Gloomy clouds never had a chance to rob 
Warming the world 
As the globe twirls 
Travelling to another destination 
Ready to glare a post card presentation 
Filled with enthusiasm not able to be patient 
Seconds click away 
Minutes collect them then say 
“Fourteen Forty makes one day” 
Still high in the sky 
Lighting a path where one should try 
To comprehend 
Life’s concept called ‘when’ 
Soon everything will be dark 
Night time checking in putting itself in park 
Just like the sun 
Slowly the lunar landscape will move until duties are done 
Fulfilling the sleeping hours 
Until daylight returns to blazing power 
Morning comes alive 
Bringing new hope as a rallying cry 
Top of the morning all 
With a wakeup call
A welcome smile 
Greeting the rank and file 
Going to defend 
What societal contributions they need to pen 
While a retiring moon hears the hen 
Finishing the time card and pushing send
