Twilight's Last Ember

Watching the hourglass passing time

While sipping water kissed with lime

The distant bells softly start to chime

Their echoes weave a gentle rhyme

Deepening shadows move like a mime

Slow dancing near the scents of thyme

They push ahead starting their climb

Yielding to shining stars in their prime

The scale of beauty is nature’s dime

Missing such splendor should be a crime
