Premium Member The Eternal Question: God, No God, Maybe God
Growing up in a loving family of seven— church on Sundays, bare feet running wild, sharing a tricycle with three— double the fun, one standing behind the seat. Dreaming of white dresses and Prince Charming, following my dreams, praying in church to a God so giving. Marveling at trees, sunrises, sunsets, the deep blue sea— His touch lingering in the beauty of life, painting a picture so...

Premium Member Golden Glimmers of the Sun
*Playing around with Alliteration The sun softly shimmers with gold glimmers Sanguine sunsets dance marvelous minuets Before falling abed, he briefly bled for having to close his eyes beneath stunning skies when daylight dies Revived, reborn each misty morn With radiant rays, he deftly displays his fading luminous light in flourishing flight ...

The Sun vs The Sunset
The sunset, with hues rich and deep, Said, "My beauty, the world's bound to keep!" But the sun, with a wink, Said, "You're just a quick blink, While I'm shining, the world's wide awake, asleep!" ©bfa032225 ...

Premium Member The Heart Of Night
The heart of Night pierced by first light, Dawn gives birth to a brand new day. And wildflowers instinctively; begin opening their petals. Shadows scurry back into cracks, the heart of Night pierced by first light. And color steps from the shadows, as the moon completes its cycle. A spectacular sun rises once more, to push back the darkness. The heart of Night pierced by...

From Sunrise Stroll to Sunset Scroll
The city yawns a concrete hazy stretch Before the sirens find their daily screech. My sneakers whisper on the dew-kissed pave, A podcast murmurs secrets it will save For later listening. The sky, a bruised plum, Slowly surrenders to the sun's soft hum. A hurried coffee, steam against the chill, The digital world begins its urgent drill. But in these steps, a quiet...
