Twilight Dance

Slipping quietly through the forest, I saw sparkles soar and twirl. I rubbed my eyes in disbelief Since stars don't sit that near to earth. Silently, I crept still closer Until tiny delicate forms appeared. I stared wide eyed as they pranced, Sprinkling dew and closing buds. Strokes soft as angel's breath Gentle artists of the twilight I reached out to touch Silver glimmering wings And woke alone in my bed The morning sun on my face
