Sunlight

And so it ended.

Fruits of endeavors lost while the rain soon followed.

Reckless arousal, mitigated propriety -

\"God speed.\"

 

One way streets are supposed to be taken,

Make no mistake that you have wandered.

Aloof along a way that no vision can describe:

In its reckoning, one may falter.

 

Arriving upon the layout, reposal befits.

Find meaning in the slumber,

Rest well that you have landed.

Cycle through what needs be abandoned,

Obtain from within it: Gratitude.

 

And so, it began.

Dawn\'s birth lends activation,

You move freely within its breath.

But now that you are here,

You\'ll bask in warmth until its death.
