Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Darkness of Late Night

darkness of late night 
sounds drift from my neighbor's house 
right past the streetlight

the grace of springtime 
moving against the cold air 
gentle morning rain

on my window sill
this flower's joyful visage 
enjoying the sunlight

seeing time passing 
upon the broken pavement
grace of spring's sunlight

glories of springtime 
graceful motion on the trees
walking in silence

under the spring sky
my light jacket a bit much 
kindness of sunlight

as I look skywards 
the moon with sparkling stars 
such graceful motion

feeding on sunlight 
while reaching through the green leaves 
nourished by the earth

walking through my yard 
flowers suddenly appear 
after the rain squall

passing by the shore
water's motion over sand 
seagulls shout "hello"
