Challenge
How many words do you think you can write in 3 minutes, before they run away from your head? You can enter as many random thoughts as you want, but you must type nonstop for 3 minutes without planning and get thoughts on record. It doesn't even need to be poetry, writing or whatever. Just anything your mind tells you to do.

Rise and Fall

3:50 AM.

I should be asleep right now, but I fear that I’ll be awake to greet the sun once again.

We have a bittersweet relationship, the sun and I.

I’m not a fan of it at 5 AM, when the birds are chirping and my eyes are burning. The morning grass showers in dew that sparkles like glitter in the dancing rays.

But at 5 PM, that’s when my love starts to grow. As the sun sinks lower, kissing the mountain top, ever so tenderly, I admire it’s warmth. It’s glow illuminates a tiring world that seems to slow down ever so slightly.

I whisper a sweet goodbye to my friend, knowing I’ll be there to greet it the next morning.

3:53 AM.

@hm_poetry Thank you for entering this challenge! Personally, I'm a morning person because I don't sleep so the day signifies a certain warmth, a new day to me. Again, the expression was clear and well written, thank you for sharing :)
