Nightfall

Time races as the “sun sets” into its bin, An everyday “sinking spell” and a *sight that umpires* for our alibi, The moon gradually stealthily comes out If its bag, “Sombre shades” permeate the luminous continuous sky as “darkness draws” nigh, *Nature’s ordered plans* are a mystery and majestic sight, This dutiful mission and transition comes like a whiff, The night sky embellished with stars exudes a celestial aura, The moon gives its light as noon lights fall, We retire to bed and “swiftly sail”. September 24, 2022.

You have a rather unique way of putting your words together, to make them both effect and original. I really enjoyed this transition of sun and moon, how brilliantly written they were, makes me wonder about the poet, and who they might be, hope to read more of your works, have a blessed day dear Thompson
