Twilight Is the Night

This twilight of all nights

Wants to hold her tight

In a grip of pain

That knows no rights!


In a virgin best

That will not let her have rest

As the heavens teemed star

Always flees so far!


As all the Lands abide

And all the peoples beside

In another portion of town

That straggles up and down!


She lingers on the pebble shore

Sends faints kisses to the sea

With wind whipping the hair of bliss

That’s sparkles with ecstasy!


Winged words on souls that pierce

Into height of loves rare universe

Birds on myrtle-bushes

With leaves in the reeds and rushes!


The love of the woods and waves

In the brink of the dewy caves

With silent I love you

In the morning dew!

Great imagery. Particularly liked "with wind whipping" (am partial to a bit of alliteration!).

Absolutely beautiful! You creatively wove great images of nature into a natural and elemental love.
