Douse the tavern's
candles,
the prodigal sun
is longing
to roar
open another day
Will we never learn
to find treasure
in the ordinary,
pleasure
in sand and gravel
In not rushing
but pausing,
enjoying
not grieving,
time passing away.
Treasure in the ordinary ... a very thoughtful phrase.
ReplyDeleteLovely. I do hope we all learn to enjoy ordinary time passing.
ReplyDeleteI find it hard not to grieve time's passing away. Perhaps I need a lesson or two from the prodigal sun!
ReplyDeleteYes, shouldn't we savor the goodness offered while we still can? Time just flies away fast! Nicely SE!
