Twilight Exhibition

Hazy golden purple star,
Medley of a silent pipe,
Drifting sweetly in the breeze
As you settle in at night -
Air guitar of splintered light.

Ether energy expands:
Echoes H20 below.
Sparks ignite upon the waves -
Random roaming gypsy fires
Flashing 'til the wind expires.

Frolicking nymphs stir the drought.
Zephyr softly whispers back
scattering fairy dust waves,
Exhausting sun's gold embers
in liquid that remembers.

Day and night begin to fight,
Blushing colors demanding
Change of guard at palace gate.
Lofty clouds must surrender
To sentinels more tender.

Daytime troubles are obscured
In depths of murky water,
Where fish consume and hide
What sunlight could not cover.
And night now shall recover.

Here's the place to cast a line
Into liquescent  fathoms,
Where innocent life ingests
Our filth; and untouched remains -
Within potential that sustains.


Song of night replays the light,
Voiding deceit in shadow
And extending length to truth -
Reflections bent in sorrow
Advise a fresh tomorrow.

Moon beam reflection sweeps down,
Sunbathes on the stormy shores,
Play of silv'ry-shadow light,
Wrestling to chisel night
Into essence of pure sight.
