Spectral Dance of TwilightA Poem by Oscar Auliq-IceIn the crepuscular embrace, where day and night entwine, Dances a spectral ballet, in a twilight so divine. Shadows caress the amber light, where contrasts boldly play, An ephemeral bridge suspended, between the night and day. A gentle breeze whispers tales, through the boughs with ease, Leaves rustle with soft retorts, a symphony amongst the trees. Birds etch their silhouette, against a sky of blended hue, As stars begin their twinkle, amidst the darkening blue. Veil of night descends slow, as the sun dips out of sight, Yet, in this fleeting moment, nature orchestrates the light. Crickets begin their serenade, as nocturnal eyes aglow, In the twilight’s spectral dance, life's quieter rhythms flow. The moon, a silvery sentinel, watches with gentle grace, Illuminating the darkened world, with a soft and subtle face. In the stillness of the transition, every creature takes a part, An ensemble of existence, beating with Earth’s endless heart. Oh, the stories that are whispered, in the gentle twilight air, Of creatures, love, and nature’s pulse, spoken everywhere. Let us linger in this dance, where light and dark entwine, And treasure these transient moments, in the tapestry of time.
