Best Sundown Poems

Take a deep breath
Let yourself relax
Close your eyes
Come with me

Inhale
Exhale

Let me guide you
I’ll take you on a magical journey

Give in to the moment
Relax
Breathe
Close your eyes

You’re there
You’re there
You’re outside the Taj Mahal 
A full moon bathes it in a silver glow
It’s serene
Take all the time you...

My blessing basket is heavy with heaven's gifts,
Tomatoes the size of my fist, eggplants so cute,
And fresh heirloom beans bursting with pride.

The sun, orange on the horizon, frames a pair of
Snowy Egrets above, wings folded in glide descent,
Angling towards their roost.

A solitary Cricket, at home...

Crimson-orange rays clawing the sky
And everything is at peace
Birds pacing towards their young
Wolves howling to the elegant moon

Down that wooden bridge
Across the black river
Further into the dense
And back to where I started

Follow the stars
The trail of magnificent light
Running, breathing quicker
Where to?

Stand under this tree
The feel...

Whispering leaves, summer breeze,
A time to postpone all destinies.
In crimson gown, she's on the town,
'Til the dark eyes go slowly down.

Leaving memories of the golden hours,
Laughing children in leafy bowers;
The sunny noon, with the robin's tune,
And the feverish blossoms aswoon!

But, a time comes for the...

sunlight’s stairway shimmers just at sundown
                       magical music measures each step kept

please meet me as the sun is setting
by the old mill road
we’ll spend an evening not forgetting
sharing heart’s abode

we’ll take a stroll down to the river
by the city park
and cling together as we quiver
feeling chill at dark

then count the stars up in the heavens
lying in...

After the rain, 
the Sun will rise again
we have been in darkness since they arrived
in their caravan of dreams with empty promises of change, 
and constructive untruths, with which they tricked us to abandon our familiar ways
to walk their paths of retrogressive progression; 
for which...

When the wind kisses the green lawn
And the trees dance like pretty fawn

When the love flirts with the hate
And the soul listens to the heart's beat

I saw her before sundown
Her hair between blond and brown

Her name is Kate
I've never seen her of late

Honey please calm...

In misted evening I feel him still
wrapping me up from the chill.
Tatters of the past sweep by
and vanish into my mind's eye.

Pulling my skin tight around me-
streaming tears till I can't see.
All those sweet phrases he turned.
When he touched me how I burned.

Now the blackness...

Amish Sundown in the Hayfield


Heaven bright sunshine
slowly shadows 
the hand-knotted
bundles, scenting the air
with sweet blessings,
for a peaceful night.

Wie leiser Gesang
Der Untergang der Sonne
Am weiten Horizont

------------------------------

Like a quiet song
The setting of the sun
At wide horizon

Como canción silencioso
La puesta del sol
En horizonte lejano...

blooms mass in a vase
a vivid get together
days in sun recalled

wild hours of weather
when they were younger so green
remembering scenes

sunset blooms laughing
comparing lovely costumes
in a fragrant room...

in the sundown path
stepping on the fallen leaves       
walk with my shadow...
