Eyelids closing slowly
Saying goodbye to the day,
Senses sailing quietly
And gently far away,
Through the realms of evening
Swim the shadows of the light,
Threadbare remnants of a dream
Adrift upon the night.
Minutes fade to hours
In the corridors of time,
Subtly blended poetry
Without the need to rhyme,
Whispering in corners
Where the stars can never go,
Questions of the evening
That the dawn can never know.
Moonlight painted pages
Turning softly in the shade,
Writings of eternity
That never ever fade,
Gliding through forever
With such ancient muted grace
Like a song from lips of wonder
Or a smile upon a face.
Midnight chimes so softly
From a chapel far below,
Stars within the hourglass
Give off such a quiet glow,
And darkness stretches lazily
Upon the cotton cloud,
And moves away so slowly
Like the thinning of a crowd.
And as the evening wanders
Past the columns of the morn,
Where the distant glint of sunlight
Serenades the rising dawn,
There is such a sense of sadness
At the leaving of the shade,
That the morning weeps in sorrow
As the final shadows fade…
WOW pure Genius I love it so
Beautiful and so much Imagination.
Thank you for this Magical beautiful piece
