Day End

Day End
5/25/14

The crow caws and takes flight with the diminishing gray half light
Shadows elongate over a field of yellow green spring grass
This high day full of living nears its sweetened terminus
Through the upstairs open window of our bedroom
We retreat to a welcoming lair of dreams
As we hold each other in loving caress
Warm skin to cool skin rises
And black night descends
Deep sleep can wait
As love smiles
We drift
Again.
