“The sky prepares the sun for night Where drifting clouds are slowly steeping In tepid pools of waning light” A silent world prepares for sleeping “Where drifting clouds are slowly steeping” Creatures of the night draw near A silent world prepares for sleeping Daylight makes a quick withdrawal Stars hide waiting to appear “In tepid pools of waning light” The moon awaits her curtain call “The sky prepares the sun for night” Creatures of the night draw near “In tepid pools of waning light” Daylight makes a quick withdrawal “The sky prepares the sun for night” Choose Your Form 2 Poetry Contest Joseph May May 30th 2021
