Late in the night, there he was,
Existing by himself, just because.
He sat for dinner, neith clouds fallen low;
Watching for the day, waiting for the crow;
Night faded quickly, pleading for the deed,
Taking its home, showing its greed.
As light broke open the day
He heard the sound, then wished it away
But the time has come, the daunting hour here,
Great gusts of air, the blade draws near.
Standing alone, his bravery none could surpass;
Tis a mournful day-there falls another blade of grass

i could be bounded in a nut shell and count myself king of infinite space

Great imagery in this fine piece of writing.

Take care....Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Yes, this made me incredable sad, reminded me of too many nights staying up late because I'm not brave enough to fall alseep.
