After Sunset – Miracle Challenge
After sunset
when evening shadows
begin inching toward dark
in dusky, amethyst hues
the flames of a burning sun diminishing,
cosmic splendor is born anew
as twilight claims the pivotal hour
before Nightfall dons her sultry evening gown.
Once burnished hands stretch upward
one rung nearer to starry surprise
in velvet skies
as the Moon blows kisses
into a fathomless galaxy
and asteroids fling themselves
with flair.
After sunset
and once upon a time
when one with calm and beauteous aspect
and wondrous eyes
and all that was best in dark and bright
met for a moment
in cloudless climes.
She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies;And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes:Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies.--George Gordon Byron (https://miraclegirlblog.wordpress.com/2016/07/18/miraclechallenge-week-6-dated-19th-25th-july-2016) Image Courtesy of Pixabay
