~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Looking forward to the morn, When peace signals her breathless ascent, Across the gentle horizon, sunlight Reflecting the glistening silence, soothing Like the grief sometimes poured out, Over the sighing kindness of dawn, Fresh hopes, new dreams, prayers Penetrating the needless words – That destroy the melancholy, murmur… Joy into the sunflower’s heart. Looking forward to the noon, When the burden of a teardrop Erases the dawn’s laughter, Embracing the calm, clear seas with Kisses, rich and reflective, stirring, Heartbeats, delicately echoing, Strange feelings – like a longing, Embarrassed by the knowledge that truth, Yes, even truth - sometimes lies to you. Looking forward to the twilight, Evening skies in burgundy and cobalt, Burning with wonder, promises Like common thoughts, reassuring Captivating the spirit with a sense of grace, Deep and intimate, reflective as the night Who colors the entire world in moonlight, Stars singing joy through the heavens, Erasing the all consuming urge to let go Let go of the moments, so determined to slumber, On the sunset’s bosom, promising… Ever promising… To look forward to the rising of a sun, Who turns the world back to sunflower perfect.

To turn the world back to sunflower perfect, sounds so reassuring and soul warming really. I absolutely love the flow of this and your wordplay, your way with expressing is always amazing and the fact that you’ve used sunflower too here makes me go wow! Captivated. “ Embarrassed by the knowledge that truth, Yes, even truth - sometimes lies to you.” How true and profound! Sometimes everything real seems not real.and its creative how you’ve used various times of the day! And thoughts, fave

This enchanting poem paints a beautifully layered picture of the passage of time throughout the day, each section capturing a distinct mood and emotion. The anticipation and optimism expressed in the repetitive phrase "Looking forward to..." set a hopeful tone, weaving together elements of nature, emotions, and the subtle nuances of existence... Loved it my friend..
