Out of the Darkness...

 In Darkness waits the Dawn,

behind the Curtain of Night 

in breathless anticipation

of the coming beauty of Color and Light,

of warmth and wonder

and Earthly delights

Hoping, as ever, that one day she might

come out and never go back;

to keep black at bay, let not planets twinkle

or stars shine to point the way  to Heaven's Gate,                   

where so few of us are bound anyway

This She knows is a Fool's Prayer

for without Dark there is no Light,

there is Wrong but there is also Right

Two sides to everything since Time began;

it is the very heart of Nature

the very core of Man...
