Sonnet 2

Two regal sisters rein in heaven's flight
To keep the sun and moon on proper course.
They give to tide and seasons even source
And spread the brilliant tapestry of night.

Yet gods will lend an ear to mortal plight
To soothe all pains with care and heal remorse.
Both guide their subjects with a subtle force
And guard their peace against old chaos' might.

Why ruling gods would suffer crippling blows
To shelter all their mortal subjects' hearts,
Can never be expressed on mortal ground.
The might they bring to bear upon their foes
Does grow from love and care in equal parts
As sisters are in chains of fealty bound.
