Now nights dark beauty
complete with crown of stars.The sun disrobes her.
Full bloom gone to seed
summers blossom falls to earth promising return.
By day all is known;
light of reason everywhere.But then comes moonrise.
Ugly crawling bug
that decimates my rose bush;soon a butterfly.
Gritty , grey sea shell
protects the slimy oystermaking lustrous pearls.
