Why Must Day Break? Poem by Evelyn Norcott
Why Must Day Break?
Why must dawn break and
days crack to see light?
Can something beautiful
only succeed something so violent?
The changes in the sky are
Subtle and slow;
There is nothing violent
In clouds of orange.
Night slips behind the stars,
As the Moon bows to the waking world;
Clouds drift into expanding light.
Daytime does not crack,
But softly grows
From a single beckoning
Of the sun.
