Good morning,

Is this just words for the sake of words?

I don’t think so.

It has meaning and it has rhythm!

I started writing with a different photo, but this moon fit the poetry better, as it developed.

Bear with me. Some writing has a different angle than others.

Choose our views
and what we want to do
Walk down by the water
Take in sights on a stroll
Or stay inside and watch
the late night TV show

Sometimes I
am glad
that there is nowhere else to go
I would rather
not go
to where the world has turned

To the time that we pay
Another day that we have earned
On the horizon I see
Another day that has burned

The outlook is grey

Some angles may seem grim
But if we look deep within
We can outshine the sky
And the threat that we will cry

It is all within our eye
And in our mind if we let it be
It is all that we will ever see
If we can break down barriers
Organize vision to
Overcome chaos
Gradual progress
We exchange
For one day’s loss

Work towards the best future
Because there is no detour
It is the only place to go
Until the moon sinks down real low
The month changes
We go through stages

Some will feel like a win
Some that we have to begin
We can outshine the sky
If we keep it in our eye
In our mind we
Choose our views
