Hi Luna!  I'd consider a title change, since it gives away your ending lines. It's kind of a spoiler.

I do like 'tomorrow wakes too soon.' I take it as the loveliness being described doesn't last long enough.

Good to see you posting again.

Lizzie,

I built this little piece holding a bit of Carl Jung's word association; using simple words. Nevertheless, I think you're right concerning the title and flow.

You know, it's good to post again.

Thanks for reading and commenting
