Default 'Dancing in The Sun'

Dawn sweeps the night away
The sun awakens it's sons
Dancing & prancing
Another day is done

The sequel tommorow
The rerun yesterday
Dancing & prancing
Lifetimes away

Seldom a thought
To time fleeing..
Never seeing
Whats under the sun

Busy the marketplace
The actors appear
Chasing the gold coin
From far and anear

Yet never noticing
Times passing severe
Laughter not heard
Spirits soar not

Time reaches out
Destiny our lot
Marketplace hush quiet
Only a plot

A sign saying something
About some man who is not
Few will remember
Gold coin remembered not

Perhaps we should have
Danced more in the sun
Tic-tock the bell tolls
The race has been run

The winner the one
Who danced in the sun


R.E.B.

I can't pick a favorite line from this as I like the whole thing. Mind if I put it on a background and print it out for myself?

basca,

I am honored you would ask.

Of course you may.

I have not written in years, and am rather insecure about my attempts at a comeback,

Your request has inspired me.

Thank you.

Rod

Thank you. Give it a whirl. I always enjoy reading what you post in here and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

bumped because I saw a guest looking at this old piece
and I rather liked the piece myself
hence the bump
