Evening comes on swift wings
violet-black shadows envelope the ground
the crimsom sky evaporates
into an indigo background
the numbing air carries dark hearts
ancient beings with lifes untold
my friends of red rivers
the shimmering stars whisper our fate
the wind blows their glittery blessings
to us
Moon, your silver light breeds our strength
suggesting battles of old
Purple sky of twilight bold
I bathe in your beauty
Basking in your frigid touch, I embrace the Majesty of the Night Sky.
