The Last Glimmer of Light
The last glimmer of light fades away,
into the darkening gloom of night.
Bringing about the end of the day.
Another will begin at first light.
Night has taken its place,
to rule the hours before dawn.
Creeping into every space,
where light has since withdrawn.
A silvery gray mist fills the air,
ghostly apparitions appear.
The darkness they willingly share,
enfolding and drawing you near.
Sounds fade, unable to follow,
the day surrenders to the night.
A promise to return with tomorrow,
growing louder, as dim becomes bright.
The night, offering a safe haven to hide,
surrounds with a warm embrace.
The dimmest light, will be denied.
till morning gently touches your face.
