Once More


Once more the world has turned

And to the silver shine of daylight I rise

To sit in the solitude of silence.

The dark brown brew with its aroma

That brims the top of the smooth ceramic cup

Warms my hands as I leisurely sip its magic

That seeps surreptitious to my mind to clear

The dimming dust of the long night’s dreams

Working to make clear my thoughts that turn

Towards the hours that stretch before me

Until my mind surveys the view of new

Yet still unknown adventures ahead

Along a path that is scattered with tasks

That might hasten the hours to tick the time

That will lead me along to attend life’s journey.

Until unwilled, the world will once more turn

To meet yet again another star filled nightfall.
