I feel so blessed to have a roof over my head on this chilly night, The view from the window is such a beautiful sight , People traveling across the river , moving towards their destinations, Some celebrating love , some in pain ..
The reflection of moon is so pleasing to my eyes,
I wish the time stops and never flies ,
The lights from the boats remind me that traveling is life ,
I know , I say to myself – we are all born to travel ,
Doesn’t the earth travel around the sun ?
The sun has travelled so far that it’s night here and early morning somewhere else.
I wonder what is true and what is false ?
He will Come back to shine back on ,
To remind us that life is on .
The flickering street light , brings me back to where I am ,
The beautiful river , pier and distant light ,
I thank for the view in my heart ,
Smile and prepare to sleep , rest myself and my tired mind…
