Best Evening Poems

Like the Evening Star guided ancient mariners through calm or troubled seas
Let it guide and help spread this message of Peace to the far ends of galaxies

May it become the ‘Swan Song Poem’ of all time for one and all to see and perhaps even...

Conducted by the Hands that gave them voice
Sweet songs of evening soothe my weary soul.
Oh, how I love to hear the birds rejoice
As frogs and insects hum adagio.

Each night I sit and watch the sun go down
Accompanied by song that has no score
Each night His...

When twilight's spectral fingers fold
Sweet blossoms of every hue;
Some half opened bud will hold
Its pearls of evening dew.

Touched with every sunshine hour
The eternal earth has shown
All the perfume of the flower
Till it finally becomes its own.

We that wait may never find
A chance to sing our...

Where to turn, oh friend I ask
I chose to turn to you,
if you'd be so kind. 

Though I try hard to describe the beauty 
heard by deaf ears, fall so short..
seen from eyes so blind.

Invited by a melody from the stars,
a concert of music makers...

             cool evening air
   late August signals autumn
            colors on the way

I wanna be
the mild fragrance
of an evening primrose
gentle and sweet
beneath your sheet
Cluster of petals
which bloom
pink blossoms
to wither softly
into your sleep

Tell me...
What is the colour
of your night ?
Do  you need me
by your side?

Let your window
slightly open
Call the wind 
to breeze me in
Let your candle
slowly burning
Feel...

Whisper hello to the evening 

~

Autumn echoes call your name
through valleys painted tangerine
Beneath a slowly setting sun
of twilight promises serene

Feel these winds of deep affection 
quivering upon your heart
Whisper hello to the evening
as the daylight does depart

Chasing dreams in silent shadows
neath a moonbeam’s shimmered dance
Soft...

The snow wafts gently down
Softly and quietly coating the ground
With a silence so loud
Blankets earth like a shroud
Trees hold snow laden boughs
My steps as I walk make barely a sound

I take this path alone
Pondering certainties that are unknown
The twists that living takes
Mistakes we sadly make
The...

Off his leash, he escapes,
diving under a chair.
Through each room of our house, 
he darts here; he darts there.

Little scamp can’t be caught.
He careens crazily.
For his collar I reach,
but he dashes from me.

To his food dish he goes,
Ah! My time has now come.
He is back...

If one evening by chance, You and I were alone
would you reach for me knowing
for You I eternally long.

Would you walk away and pretend these 
feelings between us are just a glance
and miss out on what could be for us
a once in a lifetime chance.

Could...

I fork my medium rare steak
And put it into my mouth
Everything is settled and nice
The evening could not be better
My husband insists I say the prayer
After all, he hasn’t the tongue to speak
I whisper, “God was never there”
And I listen for the slightest shriek
But like...

She wears a gown of saffron silk
bordered with black leaf lace,
the moon her silver circlet clasp
with sparkling stars encased;
she dips satin slippers in the sea,
we her opalescent footprints trace.

Abseiling down silken threads
Moonlight casts shadows

In my countryside, silent at sunset
Long gone is the stress, long gone is the fret,
Long gone is the need to be so wide-eyed
Silent at sunset, in my countryside

Calm now are my skies with their colors bold
Streaks of blue marry with orange and gold,
My mind long...

In the midst of red evening, leaves fall from the sky,
Yielding lavish hues and vibrancy, to gathering dusk.
Under a pearl moon, twirling leaves wave goodbye,
To warmer, brighter, gold days, in the pale stardust.

Yielding lavish hues and vibrancy, to gathering dusk,
Pretty, migratory birds, are taking the...
