Two Halves of a Whole

The sun woke me today for it’s a non-Denominational orb a once upon a time God The sun rose, as it is wont to… at once playful and somber taking in all of the Earth’s delights, tickling the lids of a bifurcated globe casting into darkness as many as it elevates into light. The sun woke me today a peachy-pink glow seeped through my lids as the English ivy countered with a slight bend of its vine toward the dirty winter window. On the dark side birds found their nests babies found their cradles most found needed rest as the sun also brings the night.

Half the world is in night while the other half is in day. To describe it all poetically, this was a nice way. I'm glad I read this poem today. I will still be here, I won't go away.
