Into the Gloaming

Circling twilight, honed by rasps of one lone star, fireflies weave their magic through the last of the golden haze A pensive cricket hums, uncoiled from the thick green maze to circle upwards, and around the rim of declining sun Fireflies weave their magic through the last of the golden haze Of this darkening of earth, there are bright partakers to circle upwards, and around the rim of a declining sun as birdsongs of the summer day are put to rest Of this darkening of earth, there are bright partakers A pensive cricket hums uncoiled from the thick green maze As birdsongs of the summer day are put to rest, circling twilight, honed by rasps of one lone star
