A Flower

A flower blooms in the soft morning light,
A silent promise of enduring might.
Spreading its delicate petals, a vibrant hue,
Out to the warmth, the life-giving sun, shining anew.

The celestial rhythm, the sun's grand ballet,
It rises with hope, and then fades away.
Each day a fresh chapter, a pristine, clean slate,
A boundless opportunity, sealed by no fate.

Each new dawn brings a chance for profound, lasting change,
To break free from confines, to truly rearrange.
Each passing hour holds a chance for true greatness to bloom,
To conquer the darkness and dispel all the gloom.
Each single day is a new chance to reach for the dream,
To fuel the deep passion, the bright, inner gleam.

The flower drinks deep of the sun's golden shower,
Sustained by the light in this fleeting, sweet hour.
It unfurls its beauty, a joy to behold and to see,
Sharing its splendor with all, wild and free.

Be like the flower, resilient and bold,
Let your spirit unfold, a magnificent story told.
Spread your unique petals, your gifts and your grace,
For the world to witness, in this time and this place.

Night and Day

In the dark of night, the world is full of fear,
The shadows dance and move, and all is drear.
The trees are like great monsters, tall and strange,
The moon is like a demon’s eye, so strange.

The wind is like a scream, the owl is like a wail,
The night is full of danger, and I feel so frail.
I wish that morning would come, and chase away
The fear that fills my heart, and drives me to my bed.

But then the morning comes, and all is bright,
The sun shines down, and all is right.
The trees are like old friends, the moon is like a friend,
The wind is like a soft caress, not like a scream.

The owl is like a wise old sage, who speaks of peace,
The night is full of beauty, and I feel so free.
I wish that I could stay in this bright world all day,
And never have to go back to the dark of night.
