Best Eventide Poems

A kaleidoscope of azure and intense tangerine,
resonating beauty so peaceful and serene-
My eyes are raptured from the sun descending, 
the most astonishing sight I’ve ever seen. 
Soon the ebon sky shall arrive with dusk ascending. 

Breathtaking and elegant I see nothing but appeal, 
there are...

Eventide eases a discordant day
as peach amber contrails billow on high.
Pink ginger crawls throughout dark smoky gray
and fades as peaceful night’s cover grows nigh.

An informal jam of the waves below,
throbs in harmonic regularity.
The nourishing sounds, some high and some low,
invigorate with their sweet charity.

Muffled moans...

I ask of the night why it slips into my bedroom and
extinguishes Earth's light,
He replied softly "I'm a jealous lover and my shade
of evening lies down beside you, as we bid the
augustness of the sun adieu."

I laugh and weep at the same time,
as I'm in...

Wind drifts along a river lined with trees
and dances further inland among dew-kissed leaves
in the woods to which I have been led
while meandering off the beach’s trail.

I stand now in a clearing
wanting to dance to the wind’s whisperings
as in the silken twilight, the sun sinks...

I sauntered in an evening mist
   A midnight's heaven, magic-kissed
      Lamp-lit raindrops pattered, awesome
         Shining city turned violet blossom

warm breeze eventide
fireflies light pink roses
crickets sing a song....

When God was a burning bush
He happened to see Eve's tush
Butt wise to his games
Eve peed on the flames
And disappeared in a whoosh!...

While 
watching 
and melding
with diffused light,
as the hues so shift,
we are plunged into trance,
dancing with unbound delight,
whilst yet present in tranquil peace,
as sol waves goodbye from a distance
and this dream we have lived for a day ends....

Alabaster blue
Angelically mirror the sea 
Polishing the shore...

Eventide comes with amber blush,
a hue of calm presides.
Scent of rain upon the wind,
caresses the countryside.

Slow the tawny glow fades,
as twilight steals the scene.
There upon the sky's palette,
comes a violet sheen.

Chasing the sun to the sea,
night wraps us in her cloak.
A soft deep blue on...

breaths weep of old age through eventide... as fresh rocks stand still

Brushed with the languorous strokes of sunset
  The landscape touched by a sinewy fire,
Breathing beneath the purple haze sky
  As electrical dusk tugs molecular wire.

Bats from the caverns jerk black on thermals,
  Bouncing their radar off structures and ground,
Charred blots of rag...

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...

Sunsets
Beyond doubt I’m sure there could never be
Displays as lovely as sunsets to me
Changing kaleidoscopic shades of red
As sun descends to rest his drowsy head.   

God’s evening scene at its glorious best
We upon earth are stupendously blessed
Sky is most picturesque at eventide
While world...
