Notes About The Poem

Shades of Dark

the shades of dark cascade
from dusk to midnight
their gradients increase
only to subside
up and down delightful shadings 

their musical scales tickle my heart
gentle is the play of light
that holds dear such delight
to depths of cloudiness
inside the sinews of my mind

The bitter and sweet in harmony, make lovely music. Love “gentle is the play of light.”
