Twilight
The sun sets beyond her horizons
Her view begins to blur
The things in front of her, no longer clearly visible
Yet not completely gone
All her thoughts drift to the sky
Where she can closely observe
Sometimes very goom she can be
Dark with saddened eyes
Yet she can be so luminous, so full of life
With a bright twinkle in her eye, far in the distance
Tonight she may be completely lonesome
Quiet, where only the sound of nature is heard
Yet tomorrow is another night
Where all might be just the opposite
Her evening begins to set
The air around her beings to cool
And the brisk wind blows through her hair
It is then she whispers to herself
Now the world shall be at rest
Watching the world from a different view
She quietly awaits
On the moon, the darkness, the night
She is twilight
