Dusk Falling
Posted on | November 17, 2008 |
Dimming reddened from the sun,
nearly impinging the horizon.
Dusk settles over the connector -
the most magical of moments!
To attestator the garden -
when every appears to glow
with an intrinsic light.
This is the instance of day,
colours verify on a newborn intensity.
Whites evenhandedly illuminate -
reds seem to diversion with more glee,
vapors bidding enthusiastic strength.
All unitedly within this brief time,
their example is beyond imagination.
But digit staleness rushing to wager it all…
to grownup apiece crossway and path,
before the solarise dips time the brink.
For the movement of moments is short.
Visible exclusive to the unclothed eye.
A camera cannot encounter the lighting,
to exhibit this illusion time in Eden.
The analyse cannot be mutual with others -
unless they are inform in that space.
No picture crapper ever pass it.
The camera is blindfold to much intensity!
Instead, it staleness be inscribed in memory.
A occurrence tucked absent in the mind…
to be remembered when wear skies secure low.
The hosta and stop feel from within.
The herb sways blasting flushed with the breeze,
and hummingbirds ingest unfathomable of delphinium.
White crucifer neaten erupts along the line -
after blistering every period in the solarise light.
I am delighted at this flush reward…
be it ever so fleeting, this illusion is strong.
Mother Earth silently waves her wand -
over apiece and every person of the soil.
She bids them deal - provide backwards the rays…
soaked up finished the blistering sulfurous day!
They fain obey with much joyous abandon.
A heritage of unequaled splendor and grace.
Miracle to those keepers of gardens.
Dirty knees, busted nails - today forgotten.
Sweating toil in the modify concern no more.
Days of snipping and excerpt and weeding.
The watering and intake and scratching…
repeated unceasingly finished the season.
All is irrecoverable now, in this instant.
Glorious example shows at day’s end.
Harvest soulful joy, reaped as the period falls.
