As Darkness Descends
As darkness descends and the sun bows her glow
Starlings flock in multitude search
To perch and roost as their day is done
Sporadic lights appear all around
As if humans have come to life
Their shadows glance past translucent spaces
Sky diamonds appear through the blackening expanse
As solid surfaces glisten, created by solid deposition
of water vapour from saturated air
The roaring of modern man quietens
As if by magic a sereneness blankets my space
Distant noises allow me to know life is forever there
As i lie absorbing the sounds of silence
My heavy eyes concede to the gravity of tiredness
As i drift into a world of endless open doors
