Slightly past the edge of time,
inches from new beginnings,
ticking clocks no longer chime,
the vast world swiftly spinning.
A small spark touches the air,
brightens up the thirsty sky,
stardust flies up everywhere,
glowing as darkness shines high.
Sleepy eye with a slow blink,
opens wide to a full moon,
serves as a cemented link,
light and dark both dance in tune.
Swaying till brightness explodes,
giving life to new sun rays,
creates brightly open roads,
manifesting everyday.
Nature soon appears with ease,
the breeze swims within the rain,
misting every growing tree,
so that earth can self sustain.
Each being receives sweet gifts,
a new page to write a tale,
different species coexist,
all together setting sail.
