Lying here at dawn
empty arms longing for you,
a new heart you've found.

true love has forsaken me.

Premium Member Nightfall

Solemn overcast 
         of black 
spotlighted by 
         tingling 
twinkling stars 
         who's jealousy 
take over the sky

unholy earth calls                              
darkness commanded by sun

resurrection at nightfall
an eternal damnation

Premium Member Blissful Moon

In the nightfall
the midnight moon shines it all
giving hope to the lost
its light emanates bliss
into every heart
saving them from eternal collapse

Nightfall

Soft
lights blink
underneath
shaded starry 
sky

swift
glowing
firefly
quietly passes
by

Birds
chirps sweet
lullaby,
sway to world of
dreams.

Dusk Grandeur

Brilliant nightfall views 
Barbs of darkening hues 
Specter of sunlight gems 
Vespers obscuring into godsends
Elegant devoutness 
In worshipping grandness

Cocktail purple dress
Lays on the pink ruffle quilt
With silver dress shoes
For the violet gala
In the indigo nightfall

Sparrow

Small bird on the branch
Scouting what it came here for
Lost upon the breeze

Flickers in the mind
Like leaves falling from the tree
Gone before nightfall

Night Hunt

The grass rustles

after nightfall—

armadillos hunting.

Nightfall

Nightfall comes, dark engulfs the bright 
Some hearts are craving for the light 
To show their way through pathless dream 
Through wild rivers and shaggy streams

Nightfall In the Woods

nightfall in the woods
field mouse scurries on the ground
an eagle takes flight

snowflakes gathering
pine boughs droop beneath the weight
hatchlings to be fed

good morning my frothy white mini doily
love your lacy presence welcoming another day
you may be barren by nightfall my beauty
Kansas winds blowing your seeds away

The Sky In July

the moon takes its place, 
the stars accentuate the sky,
darkness' been summoned,
nightfall has opened its door, 
we take strides in the moonlight.

Nightfall

Shadows cross my doorway
Silence fills my soul
I smile at the coming of my friend
For darkness brings the quiet
Then peace at last begins
So, I wait
I wait for my friend
