Eclipse Of Night And Day Poem by Britney Hogue

Eclipse Of Night And Day

Rating: 4.9


The salty ocean air
And the crashing white caps
Of the wide open beach serenity
In my wildest fantasies
And most vivid dreams
None could be conceived
As perfect as this scene

White stallion and black mare
Walking flank to flank
Looks as day and night
Walking together in one place
You support the day and I night
Joined in the middle
With my left in your right

We find the perfect sandy spot
Dismount night and day
And let them go their way
They stride straight away
In perfect uniform unison
They rear and paw ocean air
Before running to horizon

We look to the blue sky
As moon draws closer
To her lover, the bright sun
In an almost dancing grace
Moon slides in front of sun
As if in the sky they embrace
Creating the eclipse of night and day

A vivid and enchanting poem so skilfully executed. The last stanza to tie into the title is brilliant. 10/10 Karin Anderson
