NIGHT AND DAY
When Night refuses to leave,
clinging on to Dawn, her handmaid,
to catch a glimpse of Day, her lover,
in the twilight that separates
their existence
Day is overwhelmed,
his lips upon hers,
hanging on tightly
In an intimate embrace
as they merge as one

Since then, I have discovered this is an Anti-Crepuscular Rays phenomenon.

Anticrepuscular Rays over Florida : What's happening behind those clouds? Although the scene may appear somehow supernatural, nothing more unusual is occurring than a Sun setting on the other side of the sky. Pictured here are anticrepuscular rays. To understand them, start by picturing common crepuscular rays that are seen any time that sunlight pours though scattered clouds. Now although sunlight indeed travels along straight lines, the projections of these lines onto the spherical sky are great circles. Therefore, the crepuscular rays from a setting (or rising) sun will appear to re-converge on the other side of the sky. At the anti-solar point 180 degrees around from the Sun, they are referred to as anticrepuscular rays. Featured here is a particularly striking display of anticrepuscular rays photographed in 2016 over Dry Tortugas National Park in Florida, USA. via NASA

Behind the rain, after the storm; Mammatus clouds, anti-crepuscular rays and a rainbow. 👀For perspective, zoom in to see the oil derrick to the left of the rainbow (yes, it’s that small). #wx #txwx https://www.instagram.com/p/CT24y-1l3d1UGkuJX9CYylZ_LzJsj277fWi1ck0/?utm_medium=tumblr

the moon is doing something right now that’s apparently really rare where the light is just right and there are things called crepuscular and anti-crepuscular rays coming out of it and going across the whole sky

When Day Kisses Night
When Day kisses Night
At Dawn
In the twilight
That separates
Their existence.
When Night won’t leave
Clinging on to Dawn, her handmaid,
For a touch of Day, her lover -
No longer satisfied with just catching
A glimpse of him, morning after morning
Day is overwhelmed
His lips upon hers
Hanging on tightly
In an intimate embrace
And they merge as one
before she is taken away.

The sky is "split" in half as an anti-crepuscular ray streaks across the sky after a supercell thunderstorm brought numerous tornadoes to Kansas back in 2016. #NikonUSA
