Day Begins

Feathered flecks of night

fling westward on sun-drawn shafts

Stars fade in teal wake

---

Mid-Day

Cast across cobalt,

a silhouette snags the sun

a beat, then arcs west

---

Day's End

Wings arrow sunward

piercing sapphire; bloody light

slowly sieves to stars

---

Midnight

A constellation

huddles beside the still pond

Grey moon glides alone

---

About the Creator

Sonia Heidi Unruh

I love: my husband and children; all who claim me as family or friend; the first bite of chocolate; the last blue before sunset; solving puzzles; stroking cats; finding myself by writing; losing myself in reading; the Creator who is love.
