Betwixt ~


The crimson glow of the setting sun
singing the delicate growth of new
birth, striving to reach the last
moment of their lifeline - reaching

Flying wings dart to and fro
within the fountain of steamy rays,
gain momentum speeding to a
height of radiance and vision - soar

Earth creatures scurry and hide
under deaden leaves and blackened rocks
become their haven that covers
their tired worn out carcass - shelter

Shivering moon beams stream as to
mark points of interest, bring ones eye
to rest upon its exact arrow’s shaft,
gently touching the baked dirt - earth

Stars aglow sparkle in a hole of depth
summoning imagination, confuse the
reasoning mind of exploration, as to what
is beyond the unknown - infinity
