Twilight Time
receding light induces shadows
twilight's hidden stars shine till dark
It's exhausting to reckon them
don't get lost assessing
less tasting the grace of time
not to fumble it on the daybreak
a pole star points in a precise way
millions of people travel in safety
since the dawn of time
Lost in the middle of a sea
approaching the coasts of land
no stars in the sky, no setbacks in life
drab and bereft of shine
shows you what's not there
hiding in plain sight
simply flowers, no fragrance
