Horizon’s Call

A poem I wrote describing the beauty and darkness surrounding nature.

The light can shine so dim

As it seeps through the cracks

Beaming hazes flow easily

Upon the unknown of being black

And through the ages we shed

The light that speeds its path

Heading towards obscurity ahead

Lying down in bliss on our backs

Into the realm of embers we go

Shedding off the dull down day

We can shine in glory as we show

As embers of dawn pave the fray

Walking into dusk seen in dread

Showing ourselves in the marsh

Peacefully rocking the day away

Taking on what seems so harsh

And the moon beckons to us all

Trudging through the musky hollow

Hearing moths recreate their hum

Till the dawn falls, then we follow

Haunting the spirit as if it were dead

Filling the vision with certain blight

Ceasing the light within the shadows

We lie down in sleep and say goodnight
