unforgiving time

In life’s mirror I
see the fountain of youth
drying in the sun

the mirror of life

water and life is
inseparably entwined
with great clarity

the mighty mirror
even when cracked it tears the
heavens asunder

J M Lysun

Have you seen the light above,
how it shines so bright,
against the blackness of the night?

Though it pales compared to day,
in the night it makes a great display.

The moon I love,
high above,
is a gentle, caring moon.

To the children of the forest,
it never really comes too soon.

By bringing light to utter darkness,
shadows into play,
it brings pure magic some would say.

Mirror of the sun.
Force of wonder.

We the children of the sun,
who fear the night,
welcome your illumination.

Symbol of grace and clarity
always be the moon I love
and forever shine on me.

J M Lysun

The mirror of life
sees only the shadow cast
hidden existence.
