Premium Member I Dance All Night
I dance as soon as it is dusk, I dance all through the night, I dance in the darkness and I dance in the moon’s light. I dance to the beat of the stars, I dance to the rhythm of the moon, I dance until the morning breaks, Which always comes too soon. ...

Muse of Dusk
She walks where day and night entwine, A whispered breeze through aging pine, With eyes that hold the fading light, And secrets born from end of night. A veil of roses, oud, and rain, A kiss of warmth, a touch of pain— She lingers soft on lover’s skin, Like velvet shadows tucked within. No dawn can cage her amber soul, No noon can grasp...

Sproing! What's that? Joyful sun, shining brightly, ready for some fun, radiant and sprightly. Will my mom make me pancakes, or will I scarf down Frosted Flakes before I romp 'neath your warmth all day to find out just how much one boy can play, and before I grow tired, at last, and rest, but first reluctantly get undressed to avoid mother's frightful wrath. I deign to...

The-Questions-Of-Poet
With a pen and copy, I ponder How dost thou solve thine blunder? Is thy universe just an empty shell? Nothing, but a meaningless hell? I wonder what crossing the ocean might feel. If crossing the bar might heal, the waves that drift me away, for when I am gay. Why must there be dusk? After the dawn. The darkness must've struck, so that the light...

Premium Member Dusk Contemplation
Dusk Contemplation The cool mist settles in as the sun gives a final farewell for the evening. Vibrant orange hues signal an end to the long day as the sky darkens. I stand alone on a hill watching the scene unfold as dusk deepens. My house beckons me and I will return there when the light has faded. For the moment I drink all of this in, refreshed and...

Pop! sunshine and birdsong awaken them. The boy gardener, the sprout breaking the earth, with the birds, they arise first, leaving their beds to gather sun, reflecting, quietly excited, soil cultivated -   a dream realized. Vibrant growth, vines branch exponentially, fueled by the sun, new life triumphs, as boy and plant conquer the earth. In time, nature sings it song, flowers bloom, fruit ripens as old vines wither and turn to...

A prayer in the dusk
Rapt in thought she sits on the porch alone. Tomorrow’s grey clouds occupy her mind. She cannot shake the fear of the unknown, as shadows lengthen, her heart feels confined. A trill of a thrush echoed from the brush. A soulful stirring deep within her blues. Leaves rustle murmurs as soft as a hush, fluttering notions, perhaps inspired clues. A desire of change...
