Analysis of Day & Night
Day begins to close her eyes
Night begins to open his.
There was a time before time
When Day & Night was one!
True love flowed from Lady Day
To Mr. Night!
The sad time of times
Divided them.
Now the moments of dusk
And dawn they can look upon
Each other in a a passing glance!
A time apart, they still hold
One a other's heart!
Look to the heavens the glow
Of Night still holds a fraction of
Her light.
Be it Moon or starlit skies, they
Will look at each other's Eyes!
Including love, they've shared
Through the ages, a beautiful
World Thier hope....
Engages!
