night to fall, dawn to break,
winds to blow, rain to come,
clouds to scoot across the sky,
birds to take flight,
stillness falls:
surface to ripple from beneath –
eye to see, ear to hear,
first breath, last sigh,
path to open, door to close,
mind to open, heart to break:
stone to roll, clouds to part,
fear to flee, love to stay.
This poem is beautiful…the entire time I was connecting it to my own thoughts…thank you for leaving me thinking…
Anticipation fills my mind after reading this. Today, tomorrow, life. I love it.
I love the contrasts and opposites!
nice poem – I love the simple line but the complex thoughts
From end to beginning
From down to up
And all between
We fill our cup
From word to words
Of flesh that’s naught
Small bits to lines
Precious the thought.
This just came to me after reading your post as I sat in the grocery store parking lot.
Thank you for your message today!
So beautiful Donna. And I love that it just “came to you”!!! Your words are so special.
