blooming gift of night
evening's pastel lantern
rest of garden sleeps
while your subtle beauty reigns
twilight's magic moonflower

Beautiful, Chris.

I am late as usual, but Chris I have to tell you that this was a spectacular piece you presented.  I have marked it to view again and don't do that too often.  Lovely sweet Canuck!
