Rendezvous of the Opposites




Night, though knows not the Day
But gives into Dawn.
Dawn, though knows the Darkness well
Yet dispels the Night's fawn...

Day and Night meet on the Eve,
Eve, witness to the rendezvous,
Does in gray shades hide
And drenches them in dew...

Day cools its heels in it
Night dresses in nocturnal blue,
Hand in hand they sink into oblivion
Not knowing what is their due...

Dawn comes with the glory of Sun
Clothed in pinkish hue,
Yellow gold of the setting Sun
From darkness takes its due...

Love rises with a sigh of satisfaction
Stretches with a yawn,
Passion softly purrs by its side
After taking its due...

And the Poet muses,
After nocturnal rendezvous,
With renewed contemplation,
The Pen scribbles anew...

Hi Zoya...to quote Cole Porter, "Night And Day, You Are The One"

He most certainly had you in mind when he wrote that...

Good thoughtful poem, Zoya...enjoyed reading it
