Retribution

Twilight was the time of day
as well they do concur
about the hour of crepuscular dusk
or evening if you prefer
there in the gloaming
altho' the light was slightly dimmer
I took a look at the situation
and saw more than quite a glimmer
of absolute absurdity the altercation confrontation
as if every nation were to follow the Law
of Exact Retaliation an

The Gloaming

The Gloaming 

In the gloaming,
Light fades and shapes lose their edge,
Uncertainty creeps in.


In the gloaming,
Leaves whisper and owls cry,
What can’t I hear.

          burnt-orange clouds
                   converge
             over the horizon.

I was a daydreamer and stargazer, who eagerly awaited calm nights of glitter,
Like blue skies warily turning pink, plum and red, as orange sun sinks, bitter.

I grew familiar with diverse constellations, along the different astral avenues,
Vanishing in the pink dawn of golden, like perpetual lime spring, begun anew.

Mystic planets of my shady, solar precincts, soon

The day is done. Travel dispersed, no more roaming.
Between dusk and sunset, it’s the gloaming.
I settle to watch, inspired by that instant moment,
When day gives over to night a regal bestowment.
Lights begin to shimmer, as we near twilight.
Across the horizon created a radiant glow so bright.
This magical moment captured

                        The air is heavy with haze
            It's time for the sun to set
God's creation does amaze
Each sunset not to forget

Premium MemberThe Chalice of Night

The Chalice of Night pours dark on the stair
drops of shadows that don't belong there.
Echoes of footsteps--do they signal harm?
Whispers in bushes that push our alarm.

We know spirits like to do their roaming
in quiet darkness or amid murky gloaming.
We feel their breath as it tickles our ear;
murmuring softly, they arouse more fear.

Walking alone on a

Acknowledging Her Wechat Moments Sharing About a Graceful Gloaming

Up swings the green, down showeres the rose. 
Hugging the horizon are mixed hues,
Where sedate tenebrosity, the fine foliage's spews,
Seamlessly mingles with the serene sunset's afterglows. 

Eyeing their osculation at ease,
Brewing bosom bracing breeze,
----Bracing breeze, as me, at ease----
I wish us together saying cheese.

Although we're isolated in our homes
We still take leisurely drives in the gloamin'
Absolutely no contact
It's in the contract
No matter how far away from home we roam

Gloaming Glory

Fiery orb of living luminous light 
    descending slowly before the 
        sea at the edge of the horizon, 

I am one with you, connected 
    through the cosmos divinely. 
          Your

Gloomy Gloaming

You can always tell a British ghost
Because they all lived on beans and toast
No chill in the air
Could ever compare
With tell-tail fumes that float to the coast!

This mystic time the poets call the gloaming,
A lingering salute to end of day,
Comes long enough to usher in the nighttime
And welcome in the moon and star display.
