In the pre-dawn dusk the sun sings out
Breaking the tone with a deep deep sound
Sighing its sigh with a tired grin
Biding its time with a note from the moon
Pausing its rise in murky depths
Waiting for tides to shout their demise
Then suddenly
A break in its short silence
Urging above with a final pitch
Ascending atop the gossamer clouds
Engraving a moonbeam over the world
Dispersing incandescent beams throughout the earth
Eventuating amidst arising clouds
Singing its praise to the heavens.
The moon shudders in the wake of the sun
Bearing a soft eerie glow
Growing fainter, fainter, fainter
Till sparse shots are all but remained
Covered by incandescent beams
Its arias shouting out blindly
Overtaken by the bright ellipse
Unseen to all but those who seek
Placing soft by the fire
Rising earthward in hard smoke
Melodically under its demise
Praying out to the heavens
Together they stand
Together they sing
Together they live
The sun and moon
In rivalled unity
