Sun and the Moon

Violet Negrette

Upon a silent raging sea

A light is birthed from deep below

Rising slowly, not yet free

Whispers of amber beginning to show

Whorls of darkness moving around

A storm of hurt felt deep inside

The embers of light make no sound

But the tempest moon cannot hide

Wings flutter on the wind to the west

The golden glare finds a shape 

Dusk dims down to dreary unrest 

Light hugs the sky like a cape

Rebirthed hope now sits atop

The rolling hills and ocean blue 

But nothing can be done to stop 

The old darkness from replacing the new
