[hometext] => The battle between day and night can sometimes be - OMG - THE ULTIMATE BATTLE
[bodytext] => The sun creeping over the horizon Spies the land with its vengeful eye It rises up with its murderous plot To boil the waters and burn the land dry As the morning grows brighter the darkness abates The sun picks its targets for the day The flora and fauna, see its white hotness And search for a cool place to lay. High noon approaches the sun steadies its aim Its weapon of heat cuts like a sharp knife The earthworms and frogs without shade for too long Slowly dry up as the sun drains their life The grass it turns brown ‘neath the suns killing ray The leaves on new plants, they wither and die Can anything stop this killing machine? This evil white globe in the sky. Afternoon slowly passes, death slows to a halt The lands many survivors rejoice The flora scrounge nourishment left by the sun The fauna perk ears as they hear a soft voice The sun nears it too, its color goes orange The voice recognized as its foe Anger and fear overtake the Suns soul As it waits for its enemy to show its faint glow The moon rises up its light barely shown The sun shrinks back, fearing oncoming night The battle begins with moons light slowly growing One horizon, dark, the other one bright Though the Suns fearsome power at noon was so bold Its power, in evening begins its slow ebbing The moon's power full rises up to do battle It slowly sets dew on now visible webbing The suns power weak, lashes out at the moon But it leaves not a mark on the moon's tender shell The soft yellow Globe continues to rise The Earth's cooling crust. No longer a living hell The battle is over the moon glows with pride The sun licks its wounds and recharges its Ray The moon knows its glory won't last for long The battle will continue come the next day [comments] => 0 [counter] => 81 [topic] => 27 [informant] => Decahedron [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => NaturePoetry )
