Twilight dances in vibrant colors. Orange streaks line orbs of yellow with the faintest green within their depths. The clouds of night block out patches of light and layer shadows like a heavy blanket upon the brown of the earth.
Twilight’s face is shrouded by a dusky veil. Yet, the horizon line is divided with light and dark. Sunbeams bleed through, but fading light darkens your toes. Night stretches on with flashes of color like scars on its surface. It winds and winds like the gradual blending of stripes.
The energy of life shifts in the wane of twilight. While the world of day fades to sleep, night life hums with the quiet energy of stars. Predators of shadows and silence take to the hunt while fireflies dance like fairies in the wood. All the while, day walkers turn a sleepful eye.
Day and night. All heed to the dance of Twilight.
