Embers
Upon the midnight blue and the pearly glow of morn
Shines the glowing embers of life and love.
Between the reality of day and the pull of night and dreams
Lays a sight of surrealism and a song of silence.
The whispers of the day unknown
Rend the warm blanket of sleep away.
The crisp cold wind, tugging,
Tugging at my senses, to waken another day.
Walking on a well worn pat, yet a path rarely used
Each step buoyed by the sight of my beloved
For the glowing embers of a life well lived have nothing
On the beauty who holds my heart and walks beside me
The embers of life ending to hold forth a way
For the new bud of life a whisper of a new day.
Upon the midnight blue and the pearly glow of morn
Shines all the brighter, the embers of life and love
Life well lived and love well carried
Colors bright, hues mellow and bleeding stains
Carry a message, upon the midnight and morn
Of a life well lived a love that prevails on.
