Shades Of Endeavors Made

At Sunrise and the dew witnessed,
Seems to slowly cease with a patient drifting...
From making that early morning appearance,
Mindsets of those young and clinging dwell...
In a hop scotching done from daydream to daydream,
Forever locked to do this as if tomorrow sits awaiting for them.

Shades of endeavors made show themselves,
More after high noon has been lived and noticed.

An urgency develops when shadows begin to extend.
And a process that began when one beams under Sun,
Without the thinking of days coming to an end...
Become more serious as the Sunset approaches.
With a realization that this life lived to experience,
Ignores those believing an 'immortality' will give them more time.
