The Transient

An Acrostic Poem

By Earl W. PearlPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

Everyone stares as the moon passes by

Can darkness intimidate light

Light is in hiding, absorbed into “dusk”

Intense, this celestial fight

Pacifist sky, regardless who won

Silhouettes are departing at “dawn”

Earth, once again, welcomes the Sun

Acrostic
