Everything's Confetti

Yesterday was truly the same as today
I saw you then; I see you now
Yet yesterday was a plain vanilla day
And everything’s confetti and sprinkles now
Then - you were with me, now inside me
A tiny matter, not hefty at all
You are still you, I am still me
Yet the stars shine brighter one and all
Somewhere in time’s curious clockwork
You and me become always together us
It really didn’t take much work
Just a lifelong labour from both of us
Yesterday was really just where today left off
In an explosion of fireworks as life takes off

Naught

In the nothingness
Absence
Floats gently
Without a trace
It curves without lines
Coming up empty
Whistling through the void
Soundless and blank

Sleep Sheep

Curly-horned sheep
Gently sweep
Stardust that seeps
In silver heaps
Of sandy steeps
And when children peep
They bound and leap
Until little eyes fall back to sleep
