Lord Helios gazed on earth below, from desert sand to mountain's snow, He smiled upon land's radiant splendor, awash in blaze from forth his render. Then evening called unto the sun, Give way to night, day's time is done, Let loose the stars, jewels crytalline, to light the way for vespertine. Yes, I agree, the sun replied, I cede the skies to eventide, For I am tired, my time for sleep; to leave the earth in Luna's keep. Shines forth the vastness of the night, As harvest moon glows golden bright, Lord Helios yawns, day's curtain drawn, Until once more, shines forth new dawn.

"Shines forth the vastness of the night, As harvest moon glows golden bright, Lord Helios yawns, day's curtain drawn, Until once more, shines forth new dawn." YAY!!! Oh Tim, this is wonderful, I LOVE IT!!! Such mythology and beautiful imagery fills your words, I love watching the sunlights curtains slowly lifting here, this is superb, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tim, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

I don't want to miss any of your postings. Nope! Notta one! I read your poems very slowly, absorbing them into my being, into my mind, and into my heart. ~ Smiles ~ Earth Angel |
