Twilight

Timid stillness encompasses

draw near

break this time of dew

and spiderwebs.

Golden spectacles

of sunlight

through which a day divine

so unfolds

in the palm of your hand

held

trying

to glow

as love grows.  

Shine across the scene

even as

Shadows fight the flight of light

letting only glimmers

moments of a second chance

Hope

still braving

Night

still keeping

Simultaneously

one slithers out

as the other is tip-toeing

slowly

into existence…..

 

Poetic musings on the dawning of a new love as I went through my divorce back in 2009
