The Sunrise in the Evening

By Scott Bailey © 2023

We watched the sun going down.

And deep inside

Every one of us

We yearned.

That primaeval wish.

That the sun would return, rise again.

And like it, we could return to the place we left.

We give the past much reverence

For its shrunken, diminished truth.

We should turn our eyes away

To the real sunrise of the morning

A give our awe

To the future.
