Dusk

As dusk inks ebony skies, stars unveil their timid light. And a bleeding sun feigns death; as shadows merge with the night. Cotton-candy clouds cluster; edged in magenta and grey. And as night's curtain descends, darkness dims the edge of day. Merging with body and soul; myth and reality meet. And fairies sprinkle dewdrops, to cool the lingering heat. Creatures of the dark awake; to a world that's very still. And silence screams its loudest; as Nature bends to its will.

Lovely imagery, Emile. "As dusk inks a cobalt sky". Love the dramatic line "the setting sun feigns death". Love that MIDWAY you have the line "myth and reality meet" introducing fairies and creatures of the night. Love even more the line "silence screams its loudest". You guessed it, it's a FAVE for me.
