Touching the Sun

Peering over the edge of a sunrise, I can now see Tomorrow's friendly face. A day of promise with endless blue skies, the clouds of Yesterday have been replaced. Standing in a grove of towering trees, light trickling through the canopy of leaves. Gently touching the warmth of the Sun's rays, into the bright light I have fixed my gaze. The sweet songs of the birds float on the wind, with a voice that sounds like a long lost friend. Feeling the quiet peace of a new day, while in Nature's boundless beauty I stray. Cherish the moments spent in the Sun's light, to hold you when darkness visits your night. 11/21/18
