No sunset tonight
hard low clouds
chilled by northern breeze
hid from me the fading light
and beauty of changing day.

A toast... to another day
passing in unresolved questions

May each day bring to all
the wisdom to understand
at least one thing small
along with the vision
to see above the norm
the world all around them
and the beauty of its form

Good thoughts here, and well presented. I am trying so hard to follow this way of thinking.

very philosophical, Cpat. Enjoyed, it seems a different one for you...and yet I would not think unphilosophical, so I don't know why it's affecting me that way.

I do find a peacefulness in your words..a calm of my morn to be exact. Thank you

Now there is a family member I will always raise a glass to. About the only one I get along with anyway.

Nicely done.
