S – sunrise at dawn
U – U and me to witness
N – nothing else matters
R – rest assured there’s peace
I – I love you the way you are
S – sweet as can be
E – everyday and forevermore*

- Acrostic Poetry

New day has arrived
The sun is rising up
Had waffles with syrup
Black coffee so I thrived
Don’t let dry wood get rived
As the horses gallop
New possibilities
New hope so we can cope
I like a darker taupe
I like this morning’s breeze
As well as ham and cheese
Don’t know my horoscope
Looking forward today
A date in a cafe**

** The HexSonnetta

sunrise, sunset, always amazing
a spring and zing in life, stops us from ageing
a new dawn, a new beginning
always on the go, be it cycling, cooking or dancing
and when sunset is here, we know it’s time to rest
don’t digress, we have done our quest
life goes on and so we must carry on
like some cheerleaders, go on from hereon
new challenges – something we look forward
as we anchored and stirred life, don’t go backward
life is indeed wonderful
don’t be fretful but be graceful
our sunset
we are one
nature’s beauty
couldn’t ask for more
