As I look at my dad jump up to see the sun

I knew right then and there what had begun

The dark figure crept up on the bright figure

In hopes to create darkness without the night

The joy in my dad’s face slowly shifted as the darkness came

As if he did not feel so amazed

The world started to dimmer

As my dad’s mood continued to simmer

Time went by quickly as if it seemed like night

But my dad reassured me that the light will occur soon again

And indeed, it did, again.
