One Day Here

One day here and gone the next,

like moonlight on the horizon,

foamy waves across the sand,

or seashells just below the surface.

Fade like amber sunsets

hues of greys and indigo night

that snuff out the light of day.

-

One day here, but gone the next,

like a roll of thunder among the clouds

and summer's teardrops from the sky.

Flutter like robins' wings,

and rise like pastel mornings,

vivid crystal blue that gives new hope.

-

One day it's here, but gone the next...

the breath of angels on our neck.

Like the kiss of April's breeze

and petals fall like snow;

fleeting moments in time

that give this lifetime meaning.

One day we're here...
