After Dark
Darkness falls.
Descending without warning;
In shock life retreats.
Darkness remains.
The world sleeps,
As underground, plans form.
Darkness continues.
Memories of summer past,
May brighten hearts, but still
Darkness endures.
Hidden, a spark is found;
Nurtured like a seed, it grows.
Darkness falters.
Like a phoenix rising, light returns
A new dawn; the sun is reborn.
Darkness flees.
The land is glorious;
Bathed in sunlight.
Darkness no more.
A new future is upon us,
A bright potential for all.
Darkness will return,
But it will not last,
Even the longest night
Gives way to a new day.
