Fearful Dawn




Fearful Dawn


Dawn's hesitant light creeps into the sky,
as though fearing the return of last night's vicious thunder.
Accompanying rose-petal clouds,
bravely challenging the anger of their steel-grey brethren.
Once more, the calm clarity of day
declares her equality over rival night,
lying in feral, hungry wait
for his opportunity to hunt once again.
