Twilight Time


Soft twilight time can paint day's end-
a tranquil sky, diffused in blue
with sapphire-melon colored inks.

What added loveliness is shared
when doubled in the mirrored lake-
while sun beneath horizon sinks.

The night grows still as sky gleams on-
such peacefulness in this grandeur,
as silence soothes the weary soul.

This glimpse of nature spreads its calm;
as shadows dance with the cool breeze-
our long and tiring day, console.

Dark tree limbs frame this work of art,
like loving arms that brace the glow.
Eve's twilight-time- unlike the dawn-

Which starts the day- twilight brings night; 
both on their stage- scenes set apart.
To twilight's charm, day's thoughts are drawn.
