We See What We Want To See

Driving down the old sand road headlights shade potholes in the dark Drive slowly with your precious load to the bus stop where we park Back on the sand and heading home dark skies shading to greys pastel hues foretell the sun Twilight gives way with brilliant blinding rays a bright dawn it has begun Now those dusty dark roads with all their flaws as dull as dull can be Magically transformed with reflected light as bright as the sun on sea Silhouette life on rainbow skies photographers dream birth of a new day Birdlife abounds this old sand road watch quietly as they play Its lighter now crystal skies so blue and I’ve finally reached my gate Lift club can be dull that is true but I simply cannot wait 24.05.21 We see what we want to see poetry contest Rhyme Sponsored by Daniel Turner
