Elemental Euphoria

          
the dawn sang of magic pure and beautiful    
the Earth spun on her axis    
enchanted by the song    
the sun rose on her enchantment    
and warmed her heart    
     
her children all awakened to the melody    
sleepy in their beds    
they smiled inside themselves    
their mother was so happy    
their roots tingled a little      
     
slowly one by one their petals open
and they drank in the sun    
tiny drops of hope    
they shared with the firmament its self      
     
the joy was then passed to the trees
great sentinels of old    
who keep watch    
they witness the sunrise    
and felt their mother's joy    
she then sent the wind      
to rustle their leaves      
and awaken them to the moment    
     
hummingbird came with a story all his own    
he whispered it to the flowers      
it was then recorded on their petals
sky read it and told the trees    
it was then scribed on their leaves    
     
finally, the sun saw the truth    
written in the sands  
is the magic of poetic life    
it revolved around him and his woman  
is witnessed in all that is natural      
   
so it was from the beginning    
and will be until the end    
     
     
     
 

No matter the time of day, the sky is alit with light
The sun shines shamelessly during the day
Past dusk, the stars shyly twinkle, and the moon glows white
Both celestial objects are impressive in their display.

The Earth below is their common ground
All three held together by gravity
Blessed by its rays, the sun became crowned
While the moon’s reflected surface holds a hue of sensuality.

Nuclear core and reflection reach out to each other
As the sun and moon race after one another along the sky
The moon, named Luna, provides comfort as does any mother
The sun, named Nova, is always a presence that one can rely.

Their love is timeless and pure
For us simple creatures on the surface, they appear as the same size
Through impacts and radiation, they both have endured
And out of the darkness have become wise.

 Despite their love, the distance between them is great
Their fading light too far to reach even during the transition from night and day
Some say that their doomed love is due to cruel fate
Yet despite the odds, they have found a way.

The one, powerful moment where they can become one
A frightening, yet intriguing event known as a solar eclipse
A brief moment when the moon blocks out the sun
Allowing Nova the view of Luna as she’s stripped.

Nova finally sees the dark side of the moon
And deems Luna the most beautiful he has ever seen
His light tenderly envelops Luna in a bright cocoon
In that brief moment, nothing can come in between.

Alas, the moment passes, and they separate once more
But they cherish the rare event close to their hearts
Their everlasting love warms them to their core
They remain loyal to each other, even though they are far apart.
