Notes About The Poem
Written 21st November 2024:

Waning Gibbous Moon Aglow

At start of darkening eventide The skyline brings lustre to one's eyes As sun is slipping away from sight The sky is a picturesque delight. Trees grace the illustrious sunset In serene, ebony silhouette Stately they are standing in tableau Against the radiant sunset show. Time to let one's negative thoughts blow Forgetting one's sorrows and their woe To complete tasks waiting to be done Afore one's dreamy dreams have begun. In ethereal nightly gloaming Lovers everywhere are out roaming Beneath a magical starlit show With a waning gibbous moon aglow.

So dreamy and magical, i love this time of the day, that youv described in such a picturesque manner with exquisite rhymes and rhythm. I love the flow of your poem, especially “ Time to let one's negative thoughts blow Forgetting one's sorrows and their woe” yes sunsets do remind me that, especially the sky unfurls so much and passes messages to us, in a cosmic way: pleasure reading. Sending you light always

How can one not admire your lovely poem accompanied by that beautiful scene? Your imagery is so beautiful. I miss dawn or sunset, as I am mostly confined indoors.

Thank you so much Victor, I get to see sunsets in winter from our window, in summertime, the best time, they’re not visable to us… Beryl
