Happily prancing in the dark
A young fawn dances for a lark
He’s jumping in fun
Post the setting sun
Skip and run
Crickets hark.

Prancing In The Dark
Tag: night
Windy Winter Night
On a gusty windy winter night
Feel no sadness or fright
Everything is alright
This pure flame burns bright
Climb to reach a new height
With happiness in sight
Hard past worth the plight
Gaze hard and see the light
Bidding adieu and goodnight…

Night Falls

Shadows faint and dim
Light obscured and fading fast
Dimming into night
Stars slowly make themselves known
Competing with the moonlight…

Dusk
Dark dusk consumes day with a great hunger
Midnight will be upon us
With celestial light…

Night Meets Day Meets Night
Night meets day
Wakefulness replaces rest
Many things done
,until,
Rest replaces wakefulness
Day meets night
Done many things.

Distant Stars
If you stare long enough into the night
Stars, even distant ones, come into sight.
–
Bright ones that are larger or nearby
Always more visible in our nightly sky.
–
Faint ones, so far away it boggles the mind
That such distances can even be defined.
–
Light pollution of our cities today
Scares even the brightest stars away.
–
Last night I stared as hard as I could
Taking a few minutes to see what I should.
–
Lights at night are too bright for me
Obliterating what I truly want to see.
–
The cosmos is wondrous to us all
Promising beauty up each nightfall.
–
So when night falls, stare into space
Don’t be surprised if a star’s in place.

Love Battles Hate Battles Love
Understanding alleviates misunderstanding
Day changes night
Love contradicts hate
,Generally,
Hate contradicts love
Night changes Day
Misunderstanding alleviates understanding…

So Sleepy
Just about to go to bed
Eyes are heavy and I’m tired
Need to rest a weary head
Or tomorrow will be mired.
–
Pillow is soft
Comforter warm
Dreams aloft
Gently snore.
–
Sound asleep
Getting rest
Very deep
Is the best.
–
My alarm clock
Sounding soon
Still as a rock
Like the man in the moon…

Starlight Sprinkles
Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening, Good Night
The sun greets
Each and all each morning
It’s a blessing.
-Good Morning-
Noontime we lunch
Warmed by the overhead sun
And sun bathe.
-Good Afternoon-
Sun waves goodbye
As dusk consumes most light
Night sky, beckons.
-Good Evening-
Settle down, gently
Turn out all the lights
And lay down.
-Good Night-

Day’s End

Light softly dances.
From wall to wall beside me.
As the daylight fades.
–
Night will arrive soon.
Its promise delivered now.
With oranges and reds.
–
Crickets chirp their song.
Softly as a breeze beckons.
Soft tendrils hold me.
–
The first stars appear.
As light blues fade to dark ones.
Embrace the darkness.

Heavenly Night
Stars are dimmed by light.
Mister Moon is out tonight.
A beautiful sight.
Everything tonight is right.
Definitely worth the flight…

Frogs croak in evenings.
Bringing about dusk’s entrance.
Twilight comes quickly.
Sun fades, stars begin to glow.
Nightfall settles on the land.
