Analysis of Moment



as i sit...
pondering,
dreaming,
fantasizing,
living,
a breathe from God flows,
caressing earth...blowing,
kissing my cheek.
lullaby's of jazz,
soothe my soul.
God calls the sun to sleep.
the clouds tucking it in,
revealing colours of beauty.
these moments...
i pray may come again
life is simple, birth.death.
but love, love is the clause.
i pray i may love.
for half of i, is her.
suns have moons.
stars have skies.
she, has me.
so i pray i may love
and sunsets,become
preludes to sunrises...
