twilight soothes the day to sleep
with soft of light
with shadows deep
seducing mystery from the dark
tempting magic
tempting hearts
stars filter through a hazy night
clinging to darkness
clinging to light
inviting lovers to come and play
enchanting souls
enchanting prey
moonlight whispers in after glow
all secrets surrendered
all secrets known
passion embraced in twilights kiss
remembering forever
remembering this

I thank you for those kind
I thank you for those kind words, this is an older poem, and influenced by decades of music with rhyming lyrics. I still enjoy throwing a rhyme into the mix now and then, but eventually they find the shelf, till an old song feeds me, and I relent and say, " what the hell, it's not that bad." And what you see is what you get, I impress myself, all that's needed, and I can only smile. I'm very happy that you included this in your reading, and found this to your liking, thanks again Starward.
