Millicent Mashatola Poet Free verse

Day and Night

Day and night the smell of  hope
Day the free walking spirit yet night the sad incentive secret of sleeping
Night the wondering of evil yet smile because the moon is bright 
The reflector of day yet night in it

Night the thought of sleepless thoughts
And day the massive courage of light, love and encouragement; spirit
Day the spring of smelling freshness and life
Than night the resting peace but though the mind is troubled by darkness
The ending of everything

Day and night the mother of light and darkness; with pushing and believing in tomorrow
The start of life and smiling for a better outcome
Day and night; day and night
The challenging mind, walking and moving journey
The sad embarrassing and stumbling operation of true feeling of life
And yet night the lifting of thoughts
Day and night 

Day and night; day and night
The light and darkness free spirit yet so sleepless; encouragement
Of hope, faith, laughter and survival in it; day and night
Day and night
