Night Is Just As Sweet As Day © Poem by Roann Mendriq

Evening sky is peach, gold, pink,
With hints of purple, blue and green;
Streaked with lilacs playful ink,
Tinged with melted tangerine...

Then darkness falls, and all is grey,
The sky is cloaked in mourning black;
Bereft without the light of day,
Night creeps in her sly attack...

But if you care to lift your gaze,
to flickers in the shrouded skies,
you'll find the night sky set ablaze,
with laughter in her million eyes...

Night sky is just as sweet as day,
When starry eyes come out to play...!
