Twilight reaches for the night

When darkening clouds invade

Covering the last of sun

With thick and dusky shade

Disguised within a blackening sky

Luminous shadows emerge

Eventide, sunset’s light

When day and night converge

For Steve…


How can I be so beautiful?

Then disappear before your eyes

I’m here today, then off I go

I know you’ve wondered why

Perhaps it’s meant to happen

Paving the way, for another bloom

Upon the stalk, that holds me up

Perchance, it needs more room

Though I am here to dazzle, it seems

For merely a day or two

My time here, is a short one

So I’ve blossomed, just for you

She serenades the sun to sleep
With a lullaby, from her strings

Her music floats, into the air
Takes flight, on angel’s wings

It floats among the heavens
On the tails, of passing clouds

As sunlight fades into the night
She is blanketed, with a shroud

Of darkness, it settles over her
Yet, she continues to play her song

Knowing soon the moon will rise
Tis who she plays for, all along
