The dance of night and day
The wind blew in and the darkness shuddered,
Engulfed in shadowy solitude.
Evading light with shadow dancers,
What secrets are hidden inside nights bodice.
Lights ebbing waves fall mightily as the new days dawning,
Warming up the frigid fingers of darknesses cold embrace,
Bringing to light the secrets that night once pervaded.
The wind blew in and the light embraced it.
