The poem I wish to write

Has fluttered a thought ember
towards the sun departing
from the edge of my window.

I gaze at it with wistful recall
till all colors blanketing the earth
have paled to shadows.

Tomorrow, the sun
will rise in your eyes.
And it will speak of a morning

more physical than longing,
more eloquent than lost verses.

I enjoyed this poem. It sent me in a different direction (as to meaning) each time I read it. I like that - things to ponder and think about :)
