Dusk
The sun is set,
dew kisses my skin.
The sky darkens
and the day comes to an end.
The darkness succumbs
to the light of the moon.
A brand new day
will be upon the earth soon.
But for now, the fireflies
laugh as they dance.
I think that star just winked at me,
so I take another glance.
The man in the moon
is wearing a big grin.
So I just smile back,
and the day comes to an end.
