Twilight

Lost in love at twilight;
    the sun sets,
    the rose of romance blossoms,
    a new beginning at
twilight- a million different lovers swoon.

The car swerves at twilight;
    freed by the setting sun,
    the deer prance,
    the little one jumps at
twilight- a dangerous time; cause of a thousand and one dents.

Falling asleep at twilight;
    the mothers croon
    lullabies whisper
    to children drifting off at
twilight- a relaxing hour to dozens of mothers' children.

The door slams at twilight;
    a stupid fight
    over bread and butter
    leaves her crying alone at
twilight- another man to get drunk at the three bars in town.

My heart longs for that twilight;
    Venus in the sky,
    your head in my lap,
    my heart among the stars at

TWILIGHT

Author notes

I used 'bread and butter' in the fourth stanza to symbolize the simple things... "that twilight" in the last stanza was a personal reference-not meant to refer to any of my other stanzas particularly.
and i meant to go back and forth between good and bad times at twilight... to sort of represent the different meanings twilight can have for different people.. i could have gone on with more situations.. but i like to think the gist of it was caught...or that people read my notes...

and i would like to thank lostinawe for the inspiration of this topic, 'twilight'.

like? don't like?

    I liked how you captured the many different aspects of twilight. This was very nicely-written. Thanks for sharing, and keep it up.
