The Green and Fading Afternoon

The green and fading afternoon as starkness sets within, behind, long shadows creep, with twilight soon. The green and fading afternoon releases brute bubonic moon. The town folks dream with peace of mind. The green and fading afternoon. as starkness sets within, behind. 1/31/2022

Wondrous rhythmic fluidity balanced by the relevant imagery set by methodic words. You've painted a beautiful exposé here, Kim, nicely done, Aloha!

'The town folks dream with peace of mind' -- that line makes this poem really work for me. Love the feeling of calm after reading it. Thanks, Kim.

I like this one. It creates a feeling of calm. It flows seamlessly. Your visit to my page was delightful. Sara

Thank you. Do you see the menace looming. Is the state of peace in lieu of or in ignorance of the coming plague? It could be seen either way given our current circumstances. :)

Beautiful, Kim! Enchanting. Mother Nature really does go on, taking conscious care, even while we sleep. If only we would reciprocate, as much while awake. Have a beautiful day my friend!

Yes, read again, now see the ominous stirrings, and warning of impending disaster...Mother Nature needs to wake her children before the dawn of destruction. Brilliant write!
