Radiant colors of crimson appear,
over the easterly landscape

The road behind difficult;
yet a more treacherous one lies ahead
Light gives one a sense of enrichment
Knowing in all directions, hope resides
The soul senses that in each,
a different amount of time, of travel

Noon, generates it’s warmth, causing pause
The mind reflects, upon the moments spent
Each contains a chapter within this circle of being

To continue, upon the journey,
is to accept the tolls and dues, paid upon the flesh
The hand reaches back once again, to capture the thought
Frustration sends moisture, that permeates the brow
One wipes, only to find more perspiration follows
Droplets roll down these cheeks, cooling the senses
The emotions seem to settle, steps reach greater depth
The soul looking for a place to rest
The breath becomes weaker
life lived

Suddenly pastels cross to the west
This life form halts, to relish in the splendor of being
Knowing darkness will soon prevail in

Dawn approaches, as does living
Radiant colors of crimson appear,
over the easterly landscape

The road behind difficult;
yet a more treacherous one lies ahead
Light gives one a sense of enrichment
Knowing in all directions, hope resides
The soul senses that in each,
a different amount of time, of travel

Noon, generates it’s warmth, causing pause
The mind reflects, upon the moments spent
Each contains a chapter within this circle of being

To continue, upon the journey,
is to accept the tolls and dues, paid upon the flesh
The hand reaches back once again, to capture the thought
Frustration sends moisture, that permeates the brow
One wipes, only to find more perspiration follows
Droplets roll down these cheeks, cooling the senses
The emotions seem to settle, steps reach greater depth
The soul looking for a place to rest
The breath becomes weaker
life lived

Suddenly pastels cross to the west
This life form halts, to relish in the splendor of being
Knowing darkness will soon prevail in
