Golden Twilight Hours

There's a golden glow this evening
And I see so many sights,
I can tuck away in memory
To review on winter nights.
With the window panes reflecting
All the glory from the skies,
I'm surrounded by bright colors
As the light intensifies.

The air is warm and heavy with
The scent of many flowers.
Each fragrance is so pleasing and
Enhances twilight hours.
How I hate to see it dwindle
And the shadows deepen till
I can spy a star that's shining,
Like a beacon o'er the hill.

Still I linger in the darkness
And I listen to the sounds
Of small creatures of the nighttime,
When their hidden life abounds!

Lovely - This makes me think of lying in bed as a child and hearing the sounds of the rural nightlife all about me...

Nan:  I'm glad this brought back some nice childhood memories.  I used to do the same thing, as when I was small I always had to be in bed early and I would watch the sun fade away and listen to the night.
