Sunlight

Nicholas Browning

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.

    You staying a while? You not popping your clogs yet?!

    • Nicholas Browning

      It's difficult for me to become motivated. So, I can't really say my friend.

      If truth is what you are seeking, as far as I am concerned.. the meaning can not be found elsewhere.. well writ young sir.. N

      • Nicholas Browning

        Thank you very much my man. Meaning is something bestowed I think, and life I believe is all about finding meaning in things. Best of luck to us all in that regard.

          my pleasure & true....

        • Neville

          this is what I would call a wandering song or poem.. it should be taken slowly not hurried and should be glimpsed rather than stared at...rather like its namesake really.... enjoyed muchly.. Neville
