Life is day
And death the night
Light and dark's
Eternal strife
Soon it comes
That moonless night
Adieu Adieu
Oh flower!

Fragile, lyric beauty. The fall of even one flower diminishes the earth. Very touching. Love, SandraX
A very delicate piece Sonya....which gently reminds us of life's eternal strife...
This lyrical little poem is mysterious, beautiful and has mystical aura of déjà vu - all in so few words - a marvellous feat! S :)

Surprise ending Sonya - - and what a wonderful discovery to find this tender and lyrical poem is a tribute to the humble flower.... without which this earth would be a far darker place - - thank you..; ..10 + + + Fay
Your final line is as astonishing as it is brilliant. Those two words turn the poem from something very competent into something sublime. I am impressed. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

This is beautiful in that way that seems you've read it many times before..also it sounds like a song. I love your description of the eternal battle always going on.
