IN THE EVENING DUSK

An early evening, darkening shades

of blue, a quick descent

to the night,

but an evening

is a wonder after the long months of winter sorrow,

dusk a blessing of light,

a promise of spring. No

more darkness of night on the afternoon,

less darkness of the mind

in the fading light and shadows

weaving the black web of space

on Earth. A twilight,

a marvel to have an evening

to let the day to end

and to seep away,

the night to rise in a wave of sleep.
