“…blush of night…”…”Show time,” my poem

take another look…

 

 

Show time

 

The final scene again:

 

the brash star of day

   livens the broad sky,

all blaze and streak

   in slow tumble of light,

and vaunting gush

   and thrash of cloud…

 

the cascade and fleeting splash of shadows

   betrays the deepening blush of night…

 

the star of day takes center stage

   and blooms across the sky,

and now: the curtain call…

 

and see!

the house lights look like stars.
