Just as the Sun was Rising

 Just as the Sun was Rising

ย 
In a world that leaves me feeling deflated and disappointed
I refuse to believe
that this is my lot in life
ย 
sometimes I close my eyes
imagining my very own imagery
ย 
I can see the sunflowers
smiling in the meadows
streaming with light
โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹in that one crucial moment
when the sun
finally beams onto their sleeping facesย 
waking them with a start every time
ย 
and the magnificent orchestra of birds
singing their daily opera
reminding me i'm aliveย 
ย 
and that very moment
when the sun beams
reach
the terracotta roof of the villa
perched on the hill
almost as if
it was protected by a glow ย 
ย 
clouds moving gently
to the sideย 
leaving fresh air
and lavender perfume
for all to savorย  ย 
ย 
in a world that leaves me feeling
deflated and disappointed
I refuse to believe that this is my lot in life
ย 
I close my eyes and I imagine
ย 
and i see once againย 
the great deer visit me in my back yardย 
ย 
just as he used too
many moons ago
ย 
just as the sun was rising.
