Premium Member Sundial Huitain
With flames our story has begun, my eyes are blinded by your smile; Our love was painted in the Sun; I have not felt this for a while, maybe this time I’m not on trial; Was it fate or the time of day? Oh, serendipitous sundial! I’m in awe of the game in play....

Premium Member Watching Time
** Watching Time ** From all analog to any Digitally shown markings Of humanity’s invented Way to watch over Light — passing or coming — Time… In less than a breath, So, so many ways our anxious Noting of hours may be halted: By accidents or by The Will of Heaven! Remember ever seelng those once “Must-be-shown” to the garden’s visitors? — Those unique, Stone, short, column-standing Sundials,...

Premium Member What Is a Sundial In the Shade
*Image of Sundial Lawn Landscape by Pixabay. What is a sundial in the shade? "What is a sundial in the shade?" use your gifts and be not afraid, let your light so shine before men, and share to all your waking ken, all simple minds can see the hill, yet, few whose beacon shines their skill, ignorance ain't so much a shame, to be...

Sundial My passion is the silent weather vane The gambrel brought such sorrow Much I marveled this roughcast cairn Eagerly I looked for the lintel I have dreamed of the clocks Eagerly I looked for the masonry It was heterodox Somewhat louder than the freemasonry Back into my memories rewinding And the clapboards never machining Deep into that darkness watching Still is notching, still is notching The graves...

Sundial Wisdom
As the sun touches my dial Warmth becomes me in daylight while At night I sleep and do not have the time For the suns smile helps me with time As this bright light moves around Shade tells me the time My dial is tall and does not move Yet rotates with the earth around and around When the clouds above cover...

I only tell of sunny hours... for they are all I know. To speak of winds, I would be vain to guess which way they blow. I will not try to gauge the rain. How silly would I look! The tides? the moon? to plant, or not? Best check the farmer's book. ...

My Sundial
I only tell of sunny hours... For I have found a new direction. Like the sun shinning on a sundial, hope follows me whence I travel. For its not what life owes me, its what I owe life. I've learn that happiness is a direction and not a place which I travel with hope along a road which I have made. My...

I only tell of sunny hours while expemplifying gardens in full bloom a magnet for songing birds that flute and flit I am none other then a telling wand with hints of shadow from a sunburst sunny day Concentric circles I do make by an energy powered bloom my happiest hours are spent in...

Premium Member The Happy Sundial
The Happy Sundial I only tell of sunny hours... My face is never dark or dour. I make a point of sunlight’s cast and smile to see the shadows pass. I only tell of joyful hours.... Love springtime days with pretty flowers. I keep my face turned to the sky.... The bright sunlight shines in my eye. I only know of happy times, latitude...

Premium Member I Am a Proud Greek Sundial
I AM A PROUD GREEK SUNDIAL I only tell of sunny hours historically, And go back to when I was built, Fifty years before Christ was born, Have been renovated and rebuilt! My name is Tower of the Winds, I live in Agora, Athens Greece, I live at the summit, on top, Tell time and season, quite an eyepiece Lord Elgin attempted to...
