Illuminations: A Poem
I daydream at night
And wait for the dawn
to face the harsh reality
that life has a careful rhythm
But like a roller coaster
It has unexpected turns
A few are exhilarating
Most just double cross me
Every light hour is varied
Yet they pass by the same
Then the dusk comes quietly
With relief I embrace it
Stars wink at me
Just enough brightness
Gives my head clarity
All is calm and I rest

Beautiful write!!!
Well, sounds good; you often think of the clear air above the Rockies rather than the humid South having clear skies, but I guess around where you guys are it's not all flat and humid. Blessings.

Interesting. Voted up. Great picture, too... (Do you guys in Georgia get such clear skies?)

Niece piece of work. Sightings of dark endless sky at night and beautiful constellation of stars, both of them put us in state of calm and leave us pondering our minds about some life realizations.
Beautiful poem, voted up!
