ENCORE.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Encore.


A short time of ethereal charm slowly 
embalms the sight of night's incoming veils.
The instant today leaves to prettify far
away lands sky's encore of twilight prevails.

 

Day's final adornment of filigree dusk     
awakens gone customs of solstice dancing.
I feel sudden need to applaud ritual 
as stars fall thru' dark to candle the sand. 

 

Spaces of present-day shyness shrink
as wishes breach a long-closed stage door.
So until midnight turns tide on my secret 
I will dance alone here as never before.

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    ANGELA HERE : MIDNIGHT and another lovely NZ Day is Over ! Love the Picture & Poem : Looks like Me : Lady in White splashing the Bay and enjoying the New Sunset : AMEN *Now the Day is Over* is a fave Hymn of mine and your elegant poem echoes that ! YES Dusk does have an Ethereal Charm and when on the Beach @ New Jersey USA when the Sun Goes Down we all sing *The Star Spangled Banner* and thank GOD for another Day. Midnight has just turned and I am dancing : but sadly *Alone again : Naturally*

    All your POEMS 'n PICS evoke good vibes !
    Blessings & Peace & Love ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

      Oh, I was led to that hymn and tune only recently: 'Now the day is over', for a new hymn-poem. We had the hymn at Primary School. That'll be about 5 million years ago for me then. lol.

      I say keep on dancing, dance yourself into a chant, merge yourself to the beauty of nature, intoxicated by words of your poem
