"Prepared"

~No man is rich enough
to buy back his past.

~Oscar Wilde


Each 
evening now,
as the sun stooped in the western sky,
he'd pause and watch the sight,
with ever increasing interest.
For he knew his sun too
was setting,
settling between the weight of his years
And he would contemplate the night,
and with each one that came to pass,
he would worry more,
wondering if he were prepared
to face
 the everlasting dawn.
"I am ready," he said at last.
"It has been a full day,
and
 I am tired."
