Sunrise, Sunset

hellos and goodnights (haiku sonnet)

hellos at sunrise

makes mornings so much better

with coffee or tea

as we leave our home

I take one last look at you

so I won't forget

my heart makes wishes

that I could spend afternoons

snuggled in your arms

at dusk we return

shedding all the day's hardships

and retrieve our light

good nights under the night sky

makes me drift into good dreams
