Wednesdays

I have seen red rose buds bloom into immense beauty

I have seen them wither too, petal after petal.

I have watched the sun heed to the dark

I have watched the dark heed to the bright of light.

I have seen the moon, full and proud, bow

I have seen the moon, invisible and new, shine

I have watched Wednesdays dawn into Thursdays

I have seen all these, but not you.
