As the sky shields the earth with a layer of crystal sphere.
As the wind glides along the space whispering secrets;
that only birds and trees understand.
As the sun drowns in the breast of the hills
and bids the world goodbye with a golden hug
As the moon emerges with a smile
that show its newly bleached teeth.
As the diamond stars suspend like dragon flies
and wink at the most beautiful planet.
So does my soul spread its fins and dive
Dive into the heights and depths of your eyes.
Dive into the ocean of dreams with no end.
And swim over the boundaries of time
Swim in the world of life's eternal gift.
In the world that lies in you.
Only in you.
In my nature.
There was silence across the land
People had been forced indoors
By the fear of living in the dark
On a thick black sky
Appeared multitudinous tiny stars
They seemed to be helpless
Defeated by the seemingly undefeatable darkness
Then from a shadowed horizon far east
Ascended an angel, the moon
Her garment pure white as snow
She rose up very slowly and confidently
And fought bravely against darkness
Until he was reduced to ruins
And suddenly all over the place
Started a hullabaloo of cheerful fowls
The death of silence across the land
Declared her victorious
The moon an artist; painted the sky in white
Carved the world into casted shadows
Her victory melted fear away in the dying night
And made the world look romantic instead
The night was long, heralded by wind and rain
The weary voice of a sleeping world suspended
Fanned are the dreams that seem to fly on wings
And heavy lay the dreary clouds decended
Over distant hills, a waking day embraces
Fading darkness with morning's dew kissed charms
Earth and sun, two 'twining hearts together
In gladness joined with fervant tender arms
Softly silent, crests the rising of the sun
Dimming stars that fade along a morning mist
Like flames upon the sleepy earth awakened
In welcome voice, a greeting's golden kiss
The blushing sky in brightest woven fabric
Lighten hearts, lifts eyes in awe attended
Yellow fields alive, and crimson trees
Behold the beauty of a world becoming splendid
Ovation to a song of morning sunrise!
Winds that rustle leaves that sleeping lay
Answered humbled prayers upon the alter
My grateful soul awakes to praise this day!!

For HG's Contest "Sunrise vs Sunset" contest, By Carrie Richards
A golden disc setting beneath azure waves
Rays of fading light reach for passing clouds
Turning them into brilliant gold
Gulls float by on summer breezes
Crying their good nights to the world below
They look for a place to roost
To rest their tired wings
Waves that pounded the shores all day
Smooth out creating a sheet of liquid glass
The dying amber light makes it look surreal
Pure and shiny as a flawless mirror
It reflects the first of the evening’s stars
For a moment the world is quiet
The wind, the waves and the birds lay in silence
Resting from a long day of living
Waiting for the light of new day
Which will come way to soon
And life…it will begin again
Dusk,
dressed in
mauve feathers,
bared pink shoulders,
with come-hither snare,
touches the foolish Sun
with a spectrum of red lips…
Up so many stairs they will trod,
shutting the world alone in the dark..
New lovers who stroll through gardens of night
And as nightingale and the crickets cry
Spurned world sets her brain adrift to weep
putting out the lights of her eyes
shuttered in forsaken bed …
Crescent moon stands vigil
Until capricious
Sun, with fickled
breath,… breezes
in with
Dawn
For Nette's "Touch Me" contest (Dusk) by Carrie Richards
Deserts stretching as far as the eyes can see
Lake beds and rivers
Once teaming with life lie dormant
Most dried with cracked mud
A lovely pattern of cracks
As intricate as any spider’s web
Hills which once were covered with trees
Plush and green
Full of life
All gone in fire and heat
Not even a blade of grass remains
Naked and barren
Their stone reaches for the sky
A sky of unending heat
With no breezes, no rain to cool it
It roasts all who looked for a single cloud
A cloud that never arrived
What has man wrought upon the world?
A world that a gracious God loaned to them
Green, plush and inviting to human kind
They did not realize what they did
Lives ended in the name of progress
Lands decimated to feed the living
Now, man is gone
The animals are gone
All that is left is a dead planet
Without a single blade of grass to start again
Was this God’s plan?
Or did man try to go beyond God’s plan?
A stupid fumbling child
Thinking that he was more than God
With that thought he destroyed a world
And with the world he destroyed himself
All in the name of progress

Sunrise breaks over the east so innocently as did the birth of creation
The Dawn rising to reclaim her throne from the night time's reign
Serenely, majestically, displaying her light as blinding as white linen
The chorus of the morning singing her praises, the return of the Queen
Fields dance in her warmth, their colors heightening from her touch
As the shadows run from view, a new vision of the day is born
Birds take to flight across the clouds of frosted blue and white
The world stirs, all is well
Sadly her reign is short lived
As sunset breaks over the east so innocently as did the first death
The dusk casting her blanket of darkness, the throne now set for the return of the King
Owls twitter as they awaken from their sleep
Nocturnal world answering the call of the Moon
And so the pattern continues
Life progresses
The Monarchy of the skies
Supreme in their own time and realms
One of silver one of gold
The treasure's of nature
For all to behold
Upon the hill on solstice eve
As daylight starts to fade
Beneath the oak tree old and gnarled
You’ll find within its shade
A portal to the nether world
Wherein there shines the light
Of faerie folk and goblins
Who have come to claim the night
They roam abroad till dawns light breaks
This land where once they reigned
Until the warm bloods disappear
So it has been ordained
For aeons past, the battles lost
Then exiled to this place
No more to mix with mortal man
Nor gaze upon his face
Whilst walking on an eventide
You should happen on that mound
And feel the air turn still and warm
And hear that ghostly sound
‘twill be the grey folk calling you
Into the world below
Enticing you to step inside
Beyond the lanterns glow
Though venture not into this realm
Enchanting as it be
For once inside, there’s no way back
For all eternity

Beneath the leaves and branches hanging over me
I take time and look up above
a different world lives up amongst the leaves
Bird, bees, and butterflies, a variety of species.
With each new dawn begins a crisp new day.
I hear, singing, chirping from miles away
Bees, wasps, insects galore, going about their business,
Spreading pollen to all the flowers
Seeking out nectar, in flowers so sweet.
The birds, fly swiftly, from branch to branch
The air comes alive with chirping melodies,
the butterfly flutters without hardly a sound.
As the day progresses, a lot goes on
The insects come to feed, on leaves or bark
crawling endlessly, always on the search for food.
As dusk begins to fall and the sky is turning red
When the world is sleeping, with darkness of night
Life still goes, and there is movement
Under the pale moonlit night
Life goes on beneath the leaves and branches hanging over me.
once a vibrant blue
with humidity on the rise
storm clouds quickly grew
rain fell with no surprise
a visible sun directly above
covered by shades of grey
it's radiance shines occasionally
on this dark and gloomy day
i'ved heard stories
reasons why it rains
that god is filled with worry
agony and pain
shedding tears of sorrow
upon this world he built
washing away impurities
cleansing the world of it's filth
the rain starts slow and light
thunder begins to roar
fury shows its might
the rain begins to pour
as quickly as it came
the clouds begin to sway
the suns radiance withstands
what a bright and sunny day
