Day and Night
A fiery ball shines on the lake
as the sun takes her rise.
Over the mountain, daylight breaks.
A beauteous sight for our eyes.
Silently, the twilight creeps
over the mountain, across the lake.
Beckoning day to go to sleep
'til sun proclaims it time to wake.
Day by day, week by week.
Seasons in and seasons out.
Of each other, there's just a peak.
As sun and moon journey about.
And so it goes , on and on.
Day chases night, night chases dawn.
