Sunrise, Surprise, Sundown, Go Round

It lights up......my world.
It lights up......our world.
It lights up......in orange.
It lights up......in gold.
It lights up......wake up.
It lights up......make up.
It lights up......we give.
It lights up......we live.
It lights up......we love.
It goes down....we frown.
It goes down....it's dark.
It goes down....the stars.
It goes down....see Mars.
It goes down....lights on.
It goes down....another day gone.
It goes around....and comes around.
Twinkle in the twilight.....start, finish, return.
Our world changes in a flash.....forever.

Sunrise and sunset are two times a day that fascinate me.
We are between moments then. Our world changes in a flash.....forever.

I like it. Both times are good times of the day. Myself I think that sunset is
the best time of the day. It's like the lord is painting a beautiful picture each
and every day to lighten our lives.

I notice the beauty of the sunrise on my way to the bus stop. Filled with reds, purples, oranges, etc.
On the way home I notice the the clouds catching the rays of the last sun. Beautiful poem to remind me
of these images!
