In Wait of Day |

The sun’s not out, behind a cloud Between the heavens and the earth Seemingly wearing velvet shroud Bearing a child in Heaven's birth. The sky has cast a darkness here as we watch in wait of a ray. Not to cry or to ever fear for yet again there will be day. Where is the light that brightens me and brings to my heart inner peace? Where is the ball I wait to see before the day has come to cease? I shall wish upon all the stars that shine the heavens ever bright. From the cosmos and back to Mars, in wait of this one guiding light. This sun has rose a thousand times and more to grace the earth's skin I wish to say through all these rhymes I am waiting, watching for then.

I can relate to this my fellow Carolinian, for the sun has yet to appear today. Very nice write, as always. You amaze me. |

O'er the plains have I been cast and burn the ground so white and though the clouds now hinder me t'ward you I'll cast some light This is the time of summer sun I'm wanted, and I'm not soon winter shall chill the likes of all and my warmth will be forgot Soon I'll burn the clouds to fade and merry shall all play till the dark of night invades and bids me go away but on the morn, the red-streaked morn I'll come again, I will to cast shadows long and lean and brighten your windowsill |

Magnus darling heart this is simply exquisite, truly awesome when you write lines as beautiful as this I’m kneeling at the feet of the master. In humble supplication that some of your gift will drop and I may gather it up. I shall wish upon all the stars that shine the heavens ever bright. From the cosmos and back to Mars, in wait of this one guiding light. This sun has rose a thousand times and more to grace the earth's skin I wish to say through all these rhymes I am waiting, watching for then. You are one of the best there is, and this is so incredibly good. I look for your writing not just because it is good writing but it is always full of meaning, always relevant. Thank you my sweet friend for penning such a wonderful poem I love it utterly utterly utterly. I love your writing darling boy simply love it. This is simply perfect, well done darling heart well done As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Magnus, I am always in awe of the words you write and how you put them together in thought. Believe me friend, the sun is out, it's just temporarily behind the clouds. But the light is there for you. Hugs, Marti |
