Beams of Light

Written in the early part of the day

Just around the edges 

the day is announcing its arrival 

Slivers of light

a combination of sun and moon 

sneak into our bedroom 

 

He sleeps with a smooth face

Calming my morning worries 

and anxieties about what's to come 

Constancy is his best quality 

the perfect compliment to my irregularity 

 

The yellow flowers he brought me

stand tall on their green legs 

and brag to this empty room 

about how their very presence made me smile

and lit up the night

 

We spend our days apart

Each rowing through the tides

of "daily life"

Until we wash up on the shores 

of this tiny box we call home

 

Like the sun and the moon 

who blend their gold and silver lights 

into one dazzling shade of dawn 

Together we shine

and bring forth new days

This is a gorgeous write, I loved the way you compared the combined beauty of the sunlight and the moonlight with the beauty of the two human hearts... There is a soothing feel in the poem which really makes the reader feel at ease... The imagery in the poem is so vivid and your detailed thoughts in the poem really stands out... So beautiful and leaves the reader with a mesmerizing feel... Well done...

Sincerely

Thank you very much for your incredibly kind words. I felt very calm while I wrote it so I am glad that came out in the work.

The flow of words was visually complimenting
to my senses... Following to souls begin the day with the sun and moon then embrace again
with the moon and fading sun.... I loved it!

Been reading a number of your pieces. Like this one, they are full of honesty and perception, and strong, simple language that tastes good to me.

I am so glad you've been enjoying them. I really liked reading your piece titled 'foolishness'
