As the sun rises slowly
~ I realize it won’t shine upon you,
As the day consumes wholly
~ I reflect on the things that you would do,
As I now return daily
~ to the tasks that have become too mundane
As the bleak guides me solely
~ just knowing that things will not be the same

You’re gone

You write my heart once again---
you just don't know what you've got 'til it's gone...(Joni Mitchell of course)
Thanks Professor...

Thank You, Sunshine
What a lovely picture, which makes a lovely response,
I can almost see myself there beneath the clouds.

Thank you, Serenity,
Yes things are sometimes best understood in retrospect
Glad you liked this effort.
