Life …
changes color
when twilight returns
Darkness
a palette
remixing your doubt
Stars
a backdrop
canvassed with unknowing
Rainbows

From Dusk To Dawn
A red sun, pooling like a drop of blood,
coagulates at the edge of darkness.
And the night flows like a shadow, a flood
black as pitch, inking a seamless starkness.
A gilded moon, like a pitted gold coin,
beams in the sky as a beacon of light.
And like swarms of flashing fireflies, stars join
quasars and pulsars, twinkling in the

A Twilight ends the sweltering day with a dusky simmer
American liberty, is what we're commemorating
Firecrackers burst above us, romantic, lights that shimmer
Under a lit sky we stand, with family celebrating

Dusk to Dawn
Extinguishing day,
Sol's scarlet sphere sinks
o'er the horizon;
into a sea of
liquid ebony
at the edge of Earth.
Twilight darkens dusk,
gathering shadows
that merge with the night;
while trillions of stars
unveiling their light,
begin to twinkle.
Night absorbs color
till Dawn's light pierces
its ebony heart;
and it bleeds scarlet,
tinting misty clouds
cotton candy pink.

Dusk To Dawn
A spent sun, sullied and bleeding,
starts to sink, defeated by Night.
And chameleon clouds blush pink,
absorbing drops of crimson light.
Vermillion inks the horizon
like luminous carnival glass.
And a glowing golden moon shines
like a cauldron of molten brass.
Black cloaks the heavens in velvet;
an ebony softness that flows.
And sleep's allowed to wander free;
to tend to fantasies and woes.
The sun

Dusk To Dawn
The day put on her twilight veil
And walked off into the night
No moon or stars to show the way
Just darkness to dull her sight
Then silently from east it came
A silver eerie kind of light
Casting shadows from the hedgerows
Making all around seem bright
The mystic moon her place she took
Way up high in autumn sky
Day walked on

Dusk To Dawn
As each dawn draws nearer to
its dusk, i'm one step closer to you.
One more day of life united under sun
and moon shadows.
From snow storms to sun showers our
seasons grow colorful.
Painted in shades of rainbow passion.
Each moment nurtures our love blooms.

From Dusk To Dawn
Night comes and calls for darkness,
bringing end of the day or something, or the hope for a new sunshine ,
For the rise of a new day ;
a newfangled day wrapped like a bride in unrevealed attire,
don’t know what will be inside?
Perhaps new paths to fulfill our dreams, or vicious way to destroy our desires??
like a

Dusk To Dawn
I dream of the tall oaks that spill the darkness of shadows down.
The winds blow a tune of a lonesome bayou sound.
The cry of the owl moves about in the night.
The fog is thick under moonlight.
As the full red moon is slowly displaced.
I watch the darkness of the night fade away.
A beam of sunlight touches

Midsummer - Dusk To Dawn
MIDSUMMER – DAWN TO DUSK
Out the window
Well past the stalking hours
There is a stillness with whispered promise
Through the trees a street light loses prominence
The green Goliath still sleeps
Old roses hang together bonded by dew
And the new bravely greet dawn
What in the noontime blaze comes singing left

Dusk To Dawn
Oh what a beautiful day we have had.
The sun is tired and must go to bed.
The darkness falls much too fast for this warm summer’s eve.
The creatures that have slept all through the day.
Wait for the moon to come out and play.
As soon as it gets high in the sky.
The owl hoots, crickets chirp and
