Flaming rays break the dark with a silence deep as stone
light dispels the macabre shadows and leave the sky alone
glorious colours float and dance to natures God of all that’s new
a wonderful refreshing miracle born like drops of mountain dew
was dawn planned to greet the weary soul and offer daily hope
was it something mankind needed to help the broken hearted cope
what of the sunsets fire and brimstone image going down in flames
bringing with it empty solitude, the time to sleep, forgo the games
like a predator of the night who must sleep when sun does bloom
was this part of the master plan where some of us fear not the gloom
what of love and sex and lust, that once hid controlling of the night
no longer prisoners of natures clock they tread boldy in plain sight
what dribble quote this man. low bred. not learned as poets go
I quote my mind, from soul released, heart open for the show
now as the clock the morn moves on I return to my blackened den
to sleep, to dream, to lust to love, until the night harkens once again.
Simply outstanding writing. Imagery was perfect, to connect the reader to the feelings.
Enjoyed!
