Night and Day

Night falls
Day breaks
Night sleeps
Day awakes

Night wounds
Day heals
Night hides
Day reveals

Evening, Morning
Divide the Light
Who perceives
Day from Night?

It's with the soul
That we see
And understand
Eternity.

Amen dear Susan.....This is brilliant in it's simple yet profound wisdom......We humans need to boil down the scary parts of life into such compact morsels of truth......Well done my friend!

Peace,

Bill :-)
