The End of Day

A wind Soft sweetness on its curl Teases The towering pines To swaying ‘rocking On its roiling breath Whispers Of a dinner Spent in calm Of beauty Slipping Twixt its gusts A metronome Of tortured flags Taps The end of day

"A metronome of tortured flags" -- That line has me 'beat,' I must confess...

Pretty, soft, and dignified, I like this poem. The final word, 'taps', with its various duties, brings your words to the final moments.
