~

As twilight gently touches born of daylight aftermath
Cicada’s serenade a drift the trees
Tiny points of light appear along the wooded path
Floating ever tender on the breeze
~
The setting sun relinquishes the sky once full in bloom
Slowly as its tapestry reveals
Shimmering the beams now falling forth an autumn moon
Illuminating what the night conceals
~
For  here within my beating heart, it's you that I desire
Walking all alone this star filled night
Wishing on a clover leaf to be what you require
To share with you this beautiful delight
~
Imagination captures in the wake of what may be
Creatures of the night now gather round
The rustling of underbrush for comfort that they seek
Muted is their darkened scurried sound
~
For on this night of fantasy before my eyes I spy
Crystalline these wings about do prance
Twinkling as stars aloft now blanketing the skies
Magic comes this night when fairies dance
~
Formed of tiny features in a delicate compose
Their beauty finds my heart it now can breathe
Once of stories long ago, of local lore it rose
Though on this autumn evening I believe
~
Whispering in silence of a filtered golden shine
My mind it drifts to images afforded by romance
Love it finds this evening now a' shimmer in this rhyme
Wonder does abound within a trance
~
Quietly I watch while moving swiftly to my view
A tear my eye does form as I’m alone
Every thought of beauty is a thought that I love you
Oh how I long to make your love my own
~
Maybe I can hold onto this magic I have seen
Here beneath a mystic sky above
Place it in a poem, send it to you in a dream
*So you will know you are my only love
