Moonset and Sunrise Over the Pacific
by CarolSue



You tarry in the western sky
a traveler be with weary eyes.
You fullness shines a glowing might,
upon the sea your lesser light.

Oh Brighness from the other side
You wake the world with morning tide.
I'm glad you share your light with me,
for I'm another traveler be.

You're busy waking up the world
while I am drifting while I'm hurled
below the oceans foaming wave,
to come again, another day.

You've been my steadfast friend tis true,
But I would never dare to rule,
Except to brighten up the path
of some lone sailor gale and mast.

My time is done, but we will play,
Another rhyme, another day.
And frolic in the day and midst,
and always glow with heavens glimpse.
