Daybreak
Subtle
patient
and gentle,
dawn's mighty force
arises, weakening
and permeating
the dark
in stages,
fading into
multi-colored hues
of blue
until it's lightest shade
looms overhead
stationary;
eventually as
intensity deepens
by noon
to align
with the all powerful
distant sun
shining at highest peak,
the encompassing surrounding
of earth's outer surface
in slowest degrees
descends into evening
with the bluest depths
as the lessening
strength of day
retreats into
the dense overtaking
of the ominous struggle
of night to rest
for another bright awakening.
