Graceful sun brightening the day Whispering shadows where it may Growing green pastures for the hay Coloring the heart with light they say Soft amber moon vibrates through the night Turning the shadowy earth hazy with delight Beckoning to the animal’s intuitive insight Filling the dark with stars that have no fright The glow of the sun welcomes us with morning Tantalizing joys clear the way for the adorning Rays of warmth, clever and creative, warning Without these joyous rays, we would be mourning Touches of pale dreams falling through the dusk Creating ochre waves of shadows that are brusque Leaving behind the mellow wishes like a vivid husk Murmuring to the heart whimsical feelings in musk Falling through the trees, creating soothing shadows The sun flickers to the earth like peaceful primrose Designing impressions of beautiful silhouettes to expose All that brings ecstasy to the spirit that seeks to impose Melancholy hints of twilight glimmer across the plains Hesitating only for the moment to see what it gains Miracles unfold with the starlight twinkling feigns Small joys smiling through the night, healing pains Lights dancing through the blackest night sky Playing with darkness and wondering just why All that grasp their friendly radiance is never shy Simply pray, thanking God with an appreciative sigh The Sun and the Moon Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Chantelle Anne Cooke May 28, 2020
