Battle.
Settling mysterious glow on late
sky's afternoon show
Phoebus hazily parts blown veils
on early twilight's face
by pushing her fading round bulk
between striated clouds.
Rays beat moon's rising attempts
to end day and outpace
dying light's race by interference
when sun shines again
from behind each vestige of grey.
Desiring to taste more this defiant
line-bleed of victorious
display as beach quickly empties
I drink shades of linked
battle between daylight and dark
as stars wink adieu
to bid blue apt goodbye in finalé
then old Sol sinks.

And now you bring us the goddess of the sun as she slips into her night attire.
There i was considering you to be her handmaiden at each break of dawn.
Delightful.
Beautiful write and so descriptive, I really enjoyed this!
A fine write Fay.
BRIAN HERE ~ Good Evening FAY ~ Thanks for sharing we have saved as a FAVE ! As a ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENTIST I am aware that all life on EARTH depends on the SUN to maintain the avaerage temperature @ 16C ! Note that the radiation from the Sun we recieve is constant and deetermined by our distance form the SUN (93 million miles !) So if we increase CO2 more of the Suns Thermal Energy is trapped on earth causing GLOBAL WARMING !
I love all poems that showcase Brother Sun ! He likes centre stage and Clouds are a problem but they make his entrance (SUNRISE) and exit (SUNSET) very spectactular ! We have enjoyed SUNSETS in every Continent ! The SUN has provided Planet Earth with free energy for Millions of Years and will continue to do so ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love ANELA & BRIAN

The setting moment could be so beautiful and so powerful as well. Beautiful writing.
