Earth Views

twilight seduces in reds and yellows
birds drift away out of sight
purple and blue is the high sky
the day has changed into night
stars appear to drip in silence
and cause a lonely wolf to call
meadows fill with glorious moon rays
streams in the valley create a waterfall
crickets sing out in harmony
here, time will always move slow
