“…chase the night…”…”Vadis,” my poem

…the brights of day

 

 

Vadis

 

The scant flourish of early dawn

   embraces the silhouette of distant trees

      that guard the crest of Advent Hill,

and stand their ground as brights of day

   invade the dark to light my way

      and chase the night that hid the trees

         that have no place to go.
