The Night ITQ

 awaken dreams night silence screams
till madness leaves from mourning trees
the sunshine breaths what daylight sees
 a dawnings tease while lightness flees

   a moonlight spies thru blinding eyes                           
  when dusky cries cause twilight dies
  across the skies the heart ache flies
     and where it lies the sun will rise

   some days in time the planets rhyme
 then darkness climbs from its sublime
 the shadows chime and do their mime
    on daylight's dime like its a crime

     before the day turned into night
    the night turned day into the light

So difficult to pen a quatozian with optimum contrast, especially with the word play of dark and light. A splendid job done with wise sight
