Dark Night
how lovely you are,
you birth beauty in your cloud
you are elegant and mysterious
you envelope secrets in your shadows and your gaze ...

how elated I feel staring at your majestic form
perfectly woven together
you bring warmth and color,
your absence, i dread to think of
neglected you have been,
we celebrate the sun and the morning and blame you for our woes and tragedies, yes we have forgotten that we acknowledge the sun because of your existence

we have deemed you the bearer of bad news sorrows may come in the night but there is always light at end of the tunnel we say,
However to me you are as important as the light of day.

your presence is reason why we can acknowledge the existence of other color shades, the candle needs you to stand out the sun smiles because it gains recognition from your departure, you don't burn and do not scorch,

dear night i celebrate you as i celebrate light
you embody patience and character
you create a platform and stand aside so that others can shine
you are unbothered by the whimp of the child who hates your arrival, night night you say
kicking and screaming they go to bed and wake up excited
you play a major role in keeping our minds and bodies safe and sane
