"Poet
of the month at Poetry for Thought"
August
Arctic
Sun
Oh
Arctic Sun,
Outcast
of the sky!
Where
do you hide?
Oceans
of diamonds,
Shimmering
brilliance,
Await
to melt at your feet.
Wildflowers
lie dormant,
Unsure
of the season.
Crystal
shadows, barren lands,
Night
is their keeper.
Sands
frozen in a hour glass,
Dangling
on a moonbeam in time
An
icy world pauses,
Anticipation
builds,
For
the arrival of it's King.
Golden
beauty, Giver of Life,
The
Day-Star battles for it's thrown.
With
laughing eyes, Darkness smiles
Casting
a bitter veil of blackness into heaven,
Blocking
the fiery rays of royalty.
The
Arctic Sun retreats in shame,
Night
has triumphed again....
