Night and day, always at play

when I hide, you come out to play

watch changing colors of the clay

 

the world is what we make of it

plunged in darkness, or cheerfully lit

 

power, love and the sky we share

though never seen together there

 

length of fleeting shadows on the soil

to measure revolving, rotating turmoil

 

rooted in ether, we stay and smile

as days and nights cover the last mile

 

MTB- Couplets for the solstice at dVerse

  1. The first and last lines tie these couplets together almost like a couplet themselves. The hiding while the other comes out to play in the first and the ominous “last mile” for days and nights to cover are very nice.
