DAY 23: Temperance
Temperance
I temper things as I will.
A silver cup of water,
a gold cup of fire,
I temper into an elixir
you wait to taste.
Sunrise bursts below my feet.
I wear swathes of sunset
and midnight skies.
The moon catches fire,
reflects back to earth.
Walk with me.
See the possibilities
of opposition.
Breathe in clean air,
exhale expectations.
See my right and left sides
blend as sunbeams
race along earth,
yet stars still glitter.
What will you facet today
from that which
will not mix?
I don my jewels,
twirl my veils.
Hold my hand, beloved.
