Teal Silhouettes
Lilacs perfume the Summer's sultry air,
wafting fragrance upon the evening breeze.
And an indigo sky of flawless blue;
frames the emerald leaves atop the trees.
Sol melts like a nugget of molten gold,
slowly sinking into a sea of fire.
And ebony saturates the darkness;
as lingering sunbeams slowly expire.
The screeching of an owl pierces the dark:
disrupting the silence imposed by Night.
And Dusk's silhouettes morph into pitch black,
as shadows absorb the last of the light.
Luna rises at a leisurely pace,
beautifying Night with Her beaming face.
