In The Dark Silent Night ....

In The Dark Silent Night

  Setting Sun made sky auburn spreading hues in delight.
  Wearing charcoal mask, appeared dusty dusk chasing twilight.
  Sky turned dense dark, polka stars to spark, darkness to fight.
   Sapphire tapestry got bright entry adorning turquoise night.
   Sitting alone I'm watching beauty of darkness of night.

  Little glow-worms flying in swarm shone as spangles amidst shrubs
  Crickets felt proud to make noise loud, rubbing wings in herbs.
   Cool calm ambient tending to be silent, got disturbed.
   Wild simplicity, not found in city, scenario in suburbs.
    Sitting alone I'm sinking in sublime silence of night.

   Through Milky Way, silhouette made way, a mystic show.
    Intermittent breeze not to cease, instead to blow slow.
    Observed from tower, meteor- showers: Cosmic debris to throw.
    Violent blast of sudden starburst on magnificent luminous glow.
    Sitting alone I'm mesmerized by mystic silhouette in night sky.

    Night queen, fragrant jasmine ready to send sweet scent
    Maroon Moon shone soon in slender shape crescent.
    Cumulus cloud not in crowd but fluffy pieces, innocent.
   Starry night looking bright, environ splendid descent.
    Sitting alone I'm reminiscing my sweetheart whom I bade bye.
