To Kiss The Day

A poem to appreciate the day.

You beckon me thither, o sweet solemn sorrow,

To the abyss of contemplation indeterminate.

Refrain from the constancy

Of your watch

For a brief moment

To kiss the sweetness

Of the day

As it passes unannounced.

. so profound ...
. i've learnt this lesson the hard way ... but treasure it immensely ...
. this "sweetness" for me is my life ... and each day is a day it survives ...
