Light held the beauty
Not more than the darkness could
All the day is filled by light
Yet it masks all the stars
As the sun rolls along the west
Darkness from bosom of light
Delivers twinkling stars into the sky
Beginning from the east till all darkness fill
The beholder could only marvel
At the beauty in day light or in dark sky

This is quite lovely; both day and night are equally beautiful. I'm not sure I get the "temporary" aspect unless it's that the "sun rolls along" and the days/nights go by quickly.
Thank you for your entry. -
Very nice write. I like how you get the balance between the day and the dark. you have some very nice imagery going here, like "Darkness from bosom of light" or "All the day is filled by light/Yet it masks all the stars" Great job, and good luck in my contest!!
