Come Morning Valentine

The world is done in oils
On a black background
But the sky is a watercolor
Mostly in blues and whites 
Pigments make for places
That settle in and harden 
Then get slowly painted over 
But the air is pure fantasy
A great artist's ongoing dream
Of sailing flowers and castle faces
Where everything looks like something else
How could the same hand
Paint them both and then 
Tear them into pieces every night
Only to start again come morning
