In darkest night, my soul, anguished by its plight <br />Tried, tried to soar free, but tied to soil <br />Came rushing back, to wait another day. <br /> <br />Day after day like soft petals that circle a flower <br />Like stories told at night to children <br />Like comets that circle a sun <br />Night becomes day and seasons change. <br /> <br />Days go by: And life <br />May end when it has scarcely begun. <br />Thinking about ambitions and dreams <br />Has long ceased; the sound of children at play <br />Will remain with me as long as it may. <br /> <br />Copyright: Rani Turton<br /><br />Rani Turton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-wait-another-day/
