A yellow ball, rolling through an ocean of blue
The shining sphere, warmth and light
Always the centre of attention
Strong beyond his ken,
In accidental power, causing droughts
Burning
But well intentioned
Warmth and light
A shining pearl, gleaming in the ocean’s black depths
The calm orb, silver glow
Arrayed with sparkling diamonds
She sings with the stars and crickets
She smiles down, but has a darker side
Mystery
The nocturnal pearl
Silver glow
He, outgoing, blazes bright
She, withdrawn, softly shining
So very different
Day and Night
They share the sky
He has his brightly-coloured coral reefs
She, her secluded oyster shell
In the ocean
The same ocean
