The Courtship
of Light
and Darkness
As the light pierces the darkness,
so does the darkness pierce the light
They do a beautiful dance each day,
one stepping forward then later stepping back
They give and take alike,
never one more than the other
The darkness surrenders to light,
then the light surrenders to darkness
They move in harmony as one,
in a dance forever locked together
They court each other with their song and dance,
always respectful of each others space
The darkness waits for the light,
to come and caress her face
Then the light waits for darkness,
so he can give into her embrace
Dancing together in an endless motion of flight,
they tease each other with caresses as the darkness
gives way to light
