Nature's Way Constanza
Sol puts to sleep the hills with light
while gloaming sheds all fading rays
and brilliant colors change to greys
when shadows darken them with night.
The ocean turns from bondi blue
to deeper shades of cobalt hue.
Returning birds to boughs, a sight,
singing melodies before sleep.
In flocks they fly, their perch to keep,
as twilight captures them in flight.
Then comes quiet hours for romance
and cheek to cheek, young lovers dance.
While Luna tests our will, our might
to keep control of passion’s love,
with silver fingers from above
when rising slowly to her height.
To wee hours the poet will write
until he glimpses dawn’s first light.
Luna begins to fade from sight.
Then all the birds begin to sing
which conjures up the feel of spring.
Sol’s rise again, conquers the night.
Birds leave their limbs to welcome day
and trees commune in their sweet way.
Sol puts to sleep the hills with light
when shadows darken them with night.
Returning birds to boughs, a sight,
as twilight captures them in flight.
While Luna tests our will, our might
when rising slowly to her height.
Luna begins to fade from sight.
Sol’s rise again, conquers the night.
