So I decided to do a little bit of writing tonight. I'll share it here even though I literally just wrote it and should probably feel it out some more before posting. This was inspired by the evening's setting sun, and the beautiful full moon which my mom told me to go look at. So thanks to her I had some inspiration tonight. (After you read, ps I do not have a daughter but look forward to the day that I do!)
The sun
A large citrusy orange, plucked from an invisible tree
Then set on fire as it falls downward towards the earth.
It disappears beyond the horizon.
The sky darkens, becoming a deep ocean blue
As blue as my little girl's favorite summer dress.
The yellow moon, bright as sunshine sparkles in her wide eyes.
She stares at the stars, with a smile.
They no longer hide, but seek out their own place to shine.
I love her laugh
Giggles bubbling up as she begins to chase fireflies
Blinking and twinkling like the stars
I pray the best for her, my tiny shining star.
The wishes I make on those above are always for her.
I wish that she will shine as bright.
The glow of her presence lighting up dark places
Until the sun is seen there again.
