Poems

Through the Day

The moon is shining

The stars are out

I'm looking up into the sky

All the while I think to myself

Oh, what a beautiful night

The sunrise comes

I'm still outside

I'm staring straight ahead

At the bright sunrise

And its yellows, oranges, and reds

I sit

Daydreaming

Through the day

Sun pounding on my head

And still I smile

All the while

Not tired enough to go to bed

As the sun is setting

Later that night

Still sitting in my chair

Such colors shining through the clouds

To get up, I could not bear

Now it's dark

The night has come

Though I'm sure it's day somewhere

For when I look up

At the sky

The moon and the stars are there

I must have dozed off

For when I open my eyes

The birds are chirping

The sun is bright

I slowly smile at the morning sun

Once again, the day has come
