Between

by GREGORY D. WELCH

At Sunset
the night sky is a collision
between the moon and the falling darkness
like two pieces of flint, banged together
until star sparks fly across the void
feeding the hungry vast ocean of emptiness
a billion rolling flicks of light
to fill the night sky
when dawn rolls around
the sparks catch fire and burn
with day bright daybreak
At Sunrise

Gregory D. Welch is a Kentucky poet who scribbles about night skies, nature and the magic of the mundane.
