Evening

Soft falls the evening ambience of slow

Lingering shadows hiding from the ever

Increasing darkness. Softly, softly night

Arrives casting its embracing arms in comfort.

Daylight slides gracefully away allowing darkness

To cast it spell of nighttime thoughts around us.

We sight as the night pushes gracefully into every

Crevasse. The ground we stand upon loses focus

Evenings passing is as always a quiet time of melancholy.

Memories of long ago invade our minds until night times

Dark shroud allows memories to fade gently away, burning

Into phosphorus as easily as the slowly evening light dying.
