Love the evening, and stars. Very peaceful poem -- makes one want to dream good things. Nicely done.

The night sky has to be velvet. And that edge that can't quite be pinpointed in the fall of night is soft and mysterious. And the late afternoon gold light is almost viscous too. 'Golden hues' has the roundness in the vowels to express this. Love big skies. Lovely poem. J :)
