Excellence Award in the 'Write Along 2018' competition

As the sun lays down and you close your eyes,
you rest your head and wait for the rise.
It’s rising for another on the other side of the world,
you just need to wait for the Earth to twirl.
Dream of the moon, dream of the trees,
dream of the waves that crash in the sea.
The stars will shine bright and shoot through the sky,
just like the rockets that fly on by.
Tomorrow’s a new day, you’ll find your way through,
keep on trying, don’t dwell on the blue.
This life is special, don’t take it for granted,
live in the moment, your life has just started!
