ere the night displays its sultry shadow
or the moon beams in glistened glow
while the sun's breath bares in full disclosure
the heat stains of its oft bronzed shoulder

the visage of time's embrace
shows its well-worn face
and smiles soft similes
as if to whisper, "please"

"write of visions in my heat-ness,
lie beside me still in warmness"
as I pondered in bright alluring
I felt not waning, but strong enduring

noting light's illuminating power
e'en turning sweet the sunlight sour
and writhing in the dusk of day-death
leaving ere the wake of night-breath

casts its spell of magic o'er my being
triggering the art of never seeing
that so covering of the darkness dim
reduces visions' chance to slim

as night displays it untamed dark
and sun settles soft in horizon's park
