Dyad

By Sam Sweikata

You are the sunrise.

The daylight that breaks

Over the horizon,

Dancing into tomorrow.

You are the moon.

Lighting the path

Of the less traveled,

A force of mystery.

You are the push of the

Sand against the ocean.

The sails of a ship

Racing to the coast.

You are the pull of the

Waves on the sandy shore

A solid hull, decorated

With jewels of the sea.

Daybreak after the storm,

The warmth of a new day,

An open field for us to play.

Follow the sound of excitement.

Shadows cast on daisies,

Wind like a cool embrace

Of looking glass–face to face.

All within a peaceful silence.

El Sol, he lies next to me in the sky.

His biological astronomy,

I hold it in handfuls.

My solar eclipse.

La Luna, is still in my arms.

Her pelagic and enigmatic aura,

I devour her essence.

My full moon.
