Dusk's embrace

At dusk, the birds to nests take flight,

And creatures seek their sheltered rest. The rivers murmur soft and light,

While evening's tingles gently bless.

Twilight wraps the clouds in grace,

Kissing rivers with a tender touch.

The silent roar of waters' pace,

And whispers of the night say much.

A cluster of clouds in sunset's hue,

Glows with shades of red and gold.

They bid the day a fond adieu,

As darkness starts its quiet hold.

Branches sway in evening's breeze,

Birds' songs fade beneath the skies.

Nature’s twilight brings a peace,

A feast for eyes where beauty lies.
