Light and Shadow

iinterplay of light and shadow creates images which resonate deep in the mind's core Night follows day and day returns Our lives are played out in the aftermath of creation Light lets us see Shadows give us a respite From the burning sun of reality Dawn greets us with a smile Night closes our eyes once again leads us to another land to the place where Morpheus rules

Ole Morpheus 'eh.. sounds like a dark one..' I shall be on the lookout for him..no not on the hill.' Not that lookout..' I mean vigilant 'specially nightimes..betimes..! I mean i would not like to get caught napping by him..L O L.'

love your characterization of the two "places" of dawn and night. Is NY enjoying sunny weather?
