   after the sun



It is not a day of despondence
I know that I can see it as new awakenings
I will try and do that
The birds still sing; I hear them
maybe it's just a different song.

I breathe deeply I suppose
and try and clear my head
I look at all things..
grateful

I am reminded from time to time
that we are our own makers of beauty
We are placed
here

So on this day of quiet remembrances
I know how God somehow is sketching a grey day
Still with its light and color
presented in a different way
