Lost and found

Excursions into introspection
Where tranquility wrestles closeups.
Despite the weight of close inspection
There smiles through some buttercups.

For fear is like a homing pigeon.
From each journey you will always learn
You think upon each view you know
And fly again to your return.

Darkness sets the harvest for the day.
The flowers and trees grow still in rest.
Seeds fall down to the ground and settle
Pupate in the soil and do their best.

The dawn sets fire the introspect.
And places the ring of wed to stay
Then shuns the moon embraces the noon.
And they grow their way into the day.

The new has come to replace the old
Where thoughts and buttercups unfold.

Sy, you're getting pretty philosophical in your old age. Very nicely done.
