24 Hours

‘Shhh’ the water breathes as if it was alive,

the unpredictable world wakes up to thrive.

The black cloak clears and gives way to the new day,

the peachy-pink earth awakens to play…

Blue ocean, blue sky,

People say hi not bye.

The water splashes with excitement and fun,

the life around dances under the sun.

Cirrocumulus clouds head out for the night

Our stars flow in, moon shines bright.

The sunset settles, makes colourful skies,

And now it is time to say our goodbyes…

Now that it is a pitch-black night,

There is not a single person in sight.

The water still dancing, the sky still flowing, both happy but aware

The nature around us does really care…
