"YOU SEE, ONE LOVES THE SUNSET WHEN ONE IS SO SAD"  
Antoine de Saint-Exupery ~~From "The Little Prince"

"YOU SEE, ONE LOVES THE SUNSET WHEN ONE IS SO SAD"  
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
 From  "The Little Prince" 

SUNSET

The sun rises in a blaze of glory,
 Sunrise
All over the Earth
Children are born and breathe Life.
The sun circles the globe bringing warmth, 
People live, love, bathe in the rays 
Of survival and intellectual growth.
A life begins as the sun starts the day
Lighting the clouds and bringing joy.

Birth, Life, Joy,
 Tears, Sadness, 

Sunrise, Happiness,
Evening, Sunset, 

"You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad"
One loves the sunrise at dawn when one feels happy.

Depression when the balance of the mind is upset,
The day seems black, nothing to feel,
Night brings sleep and stilled thought.
"You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad."

Happiness, when the balance is in harmony,
The day full of joy with love and warmth.
The sun brings the evening and sadness aproaches,
"You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad"
