In this moment,
everything is at peace.

The wind is no longer restless.

And the sun no longer must confess
its secrets to the busy land.

Every worry I have ceases.

Sparkling stars take the sun's place.

They shine with grace
that not even the sun can replace.

poetry challenge: Sunset and Stars

molly_ef

I'll be here until the sun goes down and the stars come out

The smell of flowers and the shade of the trees,

I’ll be here until the sun goes down and the stars come out.

Life slows down in the chilly lake breeze,

I’ll be here until the sun goes down and the stars come out.

Laying in sunshine and mountains of sand,

I’ll be here until the sun goes down and the stars come out.

My mind at rest as I study the land,

I’ll be here until the sun goes down and the stars come out.

The world as my company, forever at my side,

I’ll be here until the sun goes down and the stars come out.

opinion challenge: Sunset and Stars

Nora Keane

Sunsets and stars

There are no words that completely capture the essence of a sunset – all the vibrant colors mixed onto one beautiful canvas of sky. Sometimes when I see a sunset, it reminds me of a children's painting. There are no lines to color inside, and yet it is still beautiful.

When I see even a glimpse of a sunset, my head stops spinning. All the thoughts, all my worries, everything I am stressed about suddenly fall away into a pile of unimportance.

I realize how lucky I am, how incredibly lucky I am that I can see this beautiful sky. We are so lucky that there are some things in life so big that humanity cannot smother their beauty.
