Tranquility

In those moments just before the world closes its sleepy eyes When it is drenched in wondrous hues of deep blue and crimson With a luscious moon awaiting patiently to take its seat of reverence Where all is quiet and twilight lends me such a feeling of tranquility My thoughts roam, searching the skies for the source of this magnificence The world seems new, bathed in a peaceful feeling That the day with all its busy brilliance does not allow I gaze deeply into the sky , resplendent in its evening gown As if it were attending some wondrous ball Where it was the guest of honor The madness of the daytime world now gone and dressed anew I am captivated and enthralled, filled with renewed vigor Allowing hope for better days ahead A replenishing of mind, spirit and of vision A vision of a world that even in daylight Would be able to withstand the brazen glare of all its faults Returning itself to the beauty that is captured so elegantly within Twilight's glow --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
