Premium Member Dusk Contemplation
Dusk Contemplation The cool mist settles in as the sun gives a final farewell for the evening. Vibrant orange hues signal an end to the long day as the sky darkens. I stand alone on a hill watching the scene unfold as dusk deepens. My house beckons me and I will return there when the light has faded. For the moment I drink all of this in, refreshed and...

Premium Member Dawn to Dusk
Pop! sunshine and birdsong awaken them. The boy gardener, the sprout breaking the earth, with the birds, they arise first, leaving their beds to gather sun, reflecting, quietly excited, soil cultivated -   a dream realized. Vibrant growth, vines branch exponentially, fueled by the sun, new life triumphs, as boy and plant conquer the earth. In time, nature sings it song, flowers bloom, fruit ripens as old vines wither and turn to...

A prayer in the dusk
Rapt in thought she sits on the porch alone. Tomorrow’s grey clouds occupy her mind. She cannot shake the fear of the unknown, as shadows lengthen, her heart feels confined. A trill of a thrush echoed from the brush. A soulful stirring deep within her blues. Leaves rustle murmurs as soft as a hush, fluttering notions, perhaps inspired clues. A desire of change...

Echoes of Dusk
When twilight spills its ink across the skies, And silence tiptoes through the weary trees, The stars unveil their secrets in disguise, Whispered in hush beneath the evening breeze. The day’s last breath clings gently to the air, A golden thread unspooled from sunlit loom, While night ascends the throne with solemn flair, And bathes the world in velvet’s soft perfume. Yet in...

Dusk and Dawn
The strange emerges at night, Somewhere in our slumber, it comes to life, It refuses to be silenced, A tempest at its core. There exists a presence of the strange, Hidden in the twilight of the chamber, Resistant to the light, Awakening with the night. The mystery is a...

Dusk
The light retreats and its elements step down, Shadows grow longer and stand bolder. There’s an awakening and an emergence. Time opens another door. Mysteries traverse and converse. The soul encounters the dark tides. February 19, 2025....

Stardust summer, bursting with firefly desires On the twilight, consumed by night’s amazing Wild and willing, dew dreams sing in soft satires Dusk is left with lover’s quiet stargazing Shortly, a shadowy moon glows like wildfires Our time’s soon gone despite our spirit’s praising In some other life our hearts might have been sure This maze of stars and moon form pleasures...

A Midnight Joy
In the dusk of night, My heart that yearns for joy and light, In the hope of my Prince Charming, my Knight. Twilight’s foreseen, The unknown heartbreaks my heart has seen, In the hope of true love, one of a kind and never been. Has there been any better joy, Than having your last bit go wry, Yet all alone with no room...

I step forward with the fear that in the years to come, like shadows stretching at dusk, Every word spoken or written will evaporate like morning dew, Like dust carried by the wind or rivers flowing into forgotten seas, My thoughts will scatter with the dawn, silent and lost. I have...
