Notes About The Poem

Descending, the ever full Sun

Reflected its golden fulfillment

While a waxing moon challenged

The assured fulfillment of its time:-

Image this if you can:

Waxing moon—challenging the always

Full sun—rising and setting each day;

What a powerful allegorical message

Paved out of this journey home

To chat and relax on the day’s challenges

Of wishful hope and the stability of faith:-

Canvassing it all with the reality of hope

And faith—let us realize that hope is

What is to come—faith being of what is:

Here is canvassed the assured fulfillment

Of the setting sun and the risen moon—

In a waxing of what is to surly come:-

In the nature of the trying times, let us not

Rush unprepared but like a full moon, let us

Reflect the rising and setting of the sun

Reflecting the fullness of hope and faith

Guiding us to the destined fulfillment

Of whose and who we are in today’s day:-

Sunset Mooning

SUNSET MOONING…

Descending, the ever full Sun
Reflected its golden fulfillment
While a waxing moon challenged
The assured fulfillment of its time:-
Image this if you can:
Waxing moon—challenging the always
Full sun—rising and setting each day;

What a powerful allegorical message
Paved out of this journey home
To chat and relax on the day’s challenges
Of wishful hope and the stability of faith:-

Canvassing it all with the reality of hope
And faith—let us realize that hope is
What is to come—faith being of what is:
Here is canvassed the assured fulfillment
Of the setting sun and the risen moon—
In a waxing of what is to surly come:-

In the nature of the trying times, let us not 
Rush unprepared but like a full moon, let us
Reflect the rising and setting of the sun
Reflecting the fullness of hope and faith
Guiding us to the destined fulfillment
Of whose and who we are in today’s day:-
