Wings of Night.

Touch of romantic
Whispers of melting sunlight
slowly vaporized
when darkness flowing gently
covered earth with wings of night.

This is just lovely!
I think I should get out my "Poetry for Dummies" and learn how to write a Tanka. I have never tried it, but this is beautiful and very effective

this feels like the comfort chicks must experience beneath the protection of their mother's wings...great analogy to be able to look at night/darkness as such

I'm sure there are many times when the cover of darkness is a protection rather than a fear of what can not be seen.
