Dusk and Dawn-Split Haikus

sunset spins sad sky 
in raging red and crimson 
the
fireball waves goodbye 

birds fly to their nest 
a tiresome day ends at dusk 
and
night fills with moonlight

smiling stars appear  
nude night dresses in calmness  
while
wind mummers to moon

new day born at dawn 
sunshine brightens lonely sky
and
new hopes come to life.
