Twilight The twilight of my night is here I cannot make it disappear It weights me down a heavy sight Its colors fussed and now are white It vacillates in misty dew And more impossible to view Impregnates now a dossal mind Entangled in a hopeless bind The butterfly is caught the sky In updrafts of the bilge of why For tails too long upon a kite Make chaos of a steady flight And thought it ever speaks of dare It must in flight a sober air Or turn in dash and spiral down Too soon to crash upon the ground And though I know the twilights light I hear but whispers of the night |

"Its colors fussed and now are white" I love this and it tells all. how beautifully say "its color fussed" "And thought it ever speaks of dare It must in flight a sober air Or turn in dash and spiral down Too soon to crash upon the ground" sir, so many angels around you so you know how strong the wind is. so prepare to soar up, up, and high and higher!" enjoyed as always. |
