Wonderment
Gazing at the ivory white staircase,
spiraling high in the sky's endless place,
pushing up through the clouds of soft marrow.
Widening the gap that was once narrow.
The sun lowers beyond the horizon.
The full moon, it's radiant glow shines on.
Earth being nurtured by a fine mist, soon
it temps the growth, at it's feet to full bloom.
Bowing at innocence and grasping breath,
life blooms, then withers, meeting timely death.
Souls are cleansed by climbing the ivory
staircase, through the fine mist, unnoticeably,
the staircase may disappear at dawning.
A new life cycle begins each morning.
such a beautiful sonnet. I love it.
