So Must Night Descend Into Day

Overhead hazy

brightness partially

fulfilled, sails on

leisurely breezes,

 

hardly prismatic...only

faint rays in pearls,

sunrise dew drops

detaching night into day,

 

whilst invisible moon elegantly

drifts off in dreams, this lunar

sleeps in celestial community

till darkness returns.

 

Cascading light no longer frail,

soothes troubled minds...ascends

waking hours as wreathed, swathing

pleasure and tensions of human souls,

 

fortifying resolve, unease

of restless mortals inherit in

their struggles, they anchor

safe existence of sun quenched day.

I love the idea of the moon sleeping in "celestial community till darkness returns"! You always look at things in a unique way. This poem conjures up the light and peace of a beautiful cloudscape
