Night and Light

Night's dark mantle falls once more across the face of man, shadows loom out from the dark absorbing all they scan. But none can see within their sphere for darkness hides their curse, within the realms of phantom night where nightmares can't reverse. No light exists to salvage souls who drown in darkest hell infested by dark demons who feast on nighttime's spell. When morn again casts light on day night's shadows disappear, but scars remain across man's soul from darkest nighttime’s fear. And all is changed as day and night take turns to feed Mankind for light and dark's erosion etches furrows on man’s mind. Ivor G Davies

Thanks Judy, this one was written just before posting so I hope I have started writing again! Looks like I've returned on the dark side but even I never know what will fall from my pen so maybe the shadows may create a little contrast eventually.....
