eternal parting
daylight teases around the corners
tentative & noncommittal
golden-hued highlights trace fingers
over every shadowed surface
as mist reluctantly settles
silently resting upon dew-kissed ground
palms pressed to fogging pane
random glimmers hold my seeking gaze
as branches sway to nature's beat
lifting & falling with the breeze
such music is beyond divine
only heard by haunted ears
like mine
hymnal open in ancient trees
whispering song of dancing leaves
directing eyes to dusky skies
where sparkling stars slowly fade
as Night gently greets her lover Day
and I bear witness
to their bittersweet parting
small wonder beloved Moon remains so late
Sun rising slowly in delay
but for these few moments
their time is brief
thus morning rises melancholy

This is packed with lovely imager; however, this couplet is divine.

Nature speaks the most ancient of languages, doesn't it? Music like no other. Thank you, Ahavati 😊
