Night Dawns
Night dawns
He sat
The folding plastic chair creaked
Fading sunlight turned bronze
He noticed
The sun slide slowly towards the horizon
Drifting in the dark blue sky
Flocks of Geese floating V’s waving goodbye
He shivered
A cloud momentarily blocking the sun
As Orange and brown leaves fall silently to the ground
He watched
Waves of blue and green sparkle a million ways
Tiny and warm, lapping the shore
He felt
Smooth golden sand , warm and dry
Gleam white ,Under the feet
The wind tug gently as it passes by
He wrote
As swimsuits , bikinis and bare feet strolled merrily by
And Colored umbrellas reflected the sky
While Swallows soar and dive
He heard
The sun hiss into waters clean and clear
Butterflies dance in the sky
Darkness land softly on tiptoes and feet
Daylight sleep and night fall
He sat
As the stars twinkle on a bed of black velvet lace
And slept , peaceful and deep
While the cycle renewed
