Notes About The Poem

- When the Sun Goes Down -

The scent of humble flowers
                                        which graced the day
                                     Moments that have stuck
                                      reality written on stone
                                       Experience is learning
                                   The joy of nature's miracles
                                     - trapped, some might say
                                         The sky colored gold
                                    the rays don't heat anymore
                                                  But still:
                                a little piece of one's golden heart
                                     - saturated with pollen dust
