Night
a black velvet cloak
that envelopes the Mother
cradles her in Heavenly splendor
offers her brilliant diamonds
in tribute to life
Dawn
like a subtle warrior
creeps into the sky
wars against Night
a battle ground
endless ebony
royal purple
burnt orange
bleeding scarlet
spiking and spearing rays of the sun
into Night’s flesh
Morning
glorifies the Death
sings bright notes
crystal and clear
celebrating the beginning
with rainbow droplets of dew
Day
at first fresh and young
a cacophony of life
vibrantly shimmering in blue pools
like reflections of eternity
in the waters of life
Dusk
Dusk
the faintly pungent aroma
of decaying leaves
burns across the sky
soft crimson
silky salmon
deep violet
boundless black
encompassing and evolving
to the depth of twilight
to the depth of twilight
enveloping the Mother
