Sunrise, Sunset

 

Lying in bed, burning

with the night’s heat

shared unexpectedly,

the way the sun burns

through an early fog

that hides the way ahead.

 

A different bed, shivering

with the day’s betrayal,

equally unexpected,

the way the air goes cold

as the sun reveals a new way

between horizon and storm.
