The Beam Behind the Mountain

Sunlight triumphs at daytime; Every creature could see Its dazing face full of glee, Not like this tough life of mine. It catches our attention; The rest are in oblivion. But the universe likes round Where all things change their places About these immense spaces. Some rise; some fall to the ground. Sunlight loses at twilight As human soul sleeps at night. The beam behind the mountain Makes me wonder why it glows Like what a city light shows, Reaching the sky like fountain After the silhouette -- Scene a tourist would covet. The beam has its victory At this time of my puzzle: No elite ever settle Somewhere far from the glory. What we find at North axis Is aurora borealis. Masbate, Philippines 7:00 PM
