Emerging Nightfall

“It is during our darkest moments
that we must focus to see the light”
Aristotle Onassis

Emerging Nightfall

Like a slow waterfall
Answering nature’s call
The sun is setting
Making way,
For the night’s fall

Catching the Light

“It is during our darkest moments
that we must focus to see the light”
Aristotle Onassis

Catching the Light

A single beam of light
Struggling against the night
Quickly trying to write
And onto the pages,
Catch the last of sun’s light

Crossing into Sunrise

“It is during our darkest moments
that we must focus to see the light”
Aristotle Onassis

Crossing into Sunrise

As I finally open my eyes
And slowly walk towards the sunrise
Winning the continuing fight
As I am crossing the barrier
Between darkness and light

“Traveling – it leaves you speechless,
then turns you into a storyteller.”
– Ibn Battuta

Written in Stone

Left here standing
On this open landing
A church once filled with worshippers
Now heard only
A few lonesome whispers

The sign was read by Meryl

If we want the beat the rebels!”

The ruins of Acropolis
A place for fun, a place of knowledge
Decipher if you will
The old texts written with skill
Into to the old stones
Which no one owns

Oh my, oh dear,
Is this a place I truly fear?
Does anyone my cries hear?
Please, get me outta here!

Ladies in waiting
May be a sentence under stating

– Ibn Battuta

Written in Stone

When the pipes are a-smoking
Do not go around poking
There may be something cooking
In the ovens no one is looking

Dare adventure inside
But be careful of what you find
It may or may not be kind
Something preserved in time

History written into these forgotten stones
They used to be for many simple homes
Now what remains, may just be, some forgotten bones
