Awaiting morrows light
Watching darkest surface
Glowing chariot seen afar
Apollo's misty chilling rays
Where shadows sleep

Wise man say "Those who live in the past let the future sneak up on them" and "Make each moment count, it could be your last"

Very few words can be as dramatic as you have made these. Nicely done.

Hi Jeffrey, I find that I must be Ron's echo today (thanks, Ron!)...you have taken these few carefully chosen words and created a mood of dark anticipation and mystery. Wonderful writing, thank you!

Hey that's pretty good

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.
