Night and Day
Two bitter forces constantly struggling
The Patron of Light seems to be the better half.
But whom can be so sure?
Night is chased away like a beaten dog
Off to lick Her wounds, while Day stands
Pompously over the earth, without remorse.
Like a tyrant, Day, with its blinding
Light and clash of colors. is cruel compared to
Darkness, whom is forgiving and protective.
One must be of light to hide in Day, with
The difference of color, shade and tone.
But Night, oh the shrouded Mistress
Hides all who not to be seen,
Collapsing color and shelters all, regardless
Of shape or texture, in its deep hue.
The Moon, the Deep Woman's heart,
Sheds its glow sparingly, giving aid
to those in motion. The Sun,
The Unforgiving Warrior, the though may
Give life, takes it away as easily.
Blasting its rays everywhere,
Blinding , hindering.
Light is so discriminate, causing differences
which then cause conflict, wars and strife.
While the Shrouded Maiden, ever so
Dark and beautiful, negates these obstacles
And makes all unison and free in its
Shadowed realm.
