Night vs. Day 

a poem

by Gretchen Pevensie

Copyright © 2008 Gretchen Pevensie. All rights reserved.

 

Gretchen is a 19-year-old college student working toward a degree in elementary education. Her real life goal, however, is to support herself with her writing.

 


Night cloaks the world
Makes us invisible
And for a moment
Nonexistent

The moon
Everchanging
Wondrous light of eve
Guides the night

Day brings us back
We resume
Our lives unfold
In sweet monotony

The sun
Blazing fury
Sets our clocks
And warms our skin
