Understood completely, Rik - imagery rich; the difference between temperatures night to day can be extreme.
Sunset the gateway to relief - hopefully....
That’s an awesome Aussie take, Dave; one that non-desert dwellers will be hard put to piece together. Thanks he night seems the kindest host, followed by the dawn hours and early morning, at least to my experience.
This poem hit me in different ways. The sunrise portrayed so well the dawn of life with its promise of the future yet to come, while mid-day is the work and labor, the suffering of mid life, then comes the memories present in the evening of life. Then again the literal day is just fine too.
Oh wow. That is a good take on it Soren, might be a hindsight thing as life's perspective is more laid out toward the past mid-life. And yes, the literal day is a quick go-to. Thanks kindly, Rik.
