Darkness imbues sunlight,
Stars adorn pitch of night.
Pristine as north winds blow,
Huddled in loam, primroses grow.
Razor clouds streak across sky,
Starkly bleeding is dawn to eye.
Sangria balm touches azure skin,
Contrast like yang and yin.
Shadows shrink, ignoble retreat,
Selene, curtsey, obliges defeat.
Emblazes arise, heat carries,
Tip to root blushing varies.
Dawn serenades coming day,
Phoenix arose from ashes of grey.
Pigments leak from wounded sky,
Serene, expanse gone awry.
Restless in sound of silence,
Darkness stalks with defiance.
Bated pounce as sun depletes,
Across waned skies, color secretes.
Bloom resigns, surrenders,
Bows to infinite splendors.
Brigand moon ‘neath covert night
Abscond again, posies light.
The shards of night clouds
In the Full Moon Light
Resembles, the rays of the Sun
As they grow across the Evening sky
Let us, muse for awhile : Beguiled :
By the wonders, of the Full Moon
The Snow owl's shadow across the Moon
At Midnight, Crickets sing , songs of LOVE
Still the Memory , of the warmth of the Sun
Emblazes the resemblance of this Dream
YOU will not Awake, in the Darkness of Death
