In fading sunlight shadows stretch across a sylvan glade
as evenings' hush bids soft farewell to plans in daylight made.
Those tasks the strong have set themselves relinquishing their power
dispel as smoke upon a breeze grown mindful of the hour.

From circled stones a fire flares in elemental bliss,
to symphony of twilight sounds, adds crackle and faint hiss.
Within environs such as these ones thoughts may sanctify
perception on a grander scale as starlight dots the sky.

It is a time of solitude, and, solitary thoughts,
without regard for passing time or new direction sought.
Such moments in communion spent approach our most divine
defying our describing them, considered as a sign,

or omen which may indicate we're not prepared to see
that far beyond this point in time toward who it is we'll be.

I couldn't help but think of Stonehenge,
then about a few personal campfire experiences (though they weren't always blissful events).
