Description
The evening grows quiet
As the day nears dusk
Birds hush their singing
To roost they will soon rush~
Men in a hurry
Their work day is done
Rush homeward to rest
From their day in the sun~
Cattle have been grazing
Since sunup this morn
Now laying down peaceful
Young waiting to be born~
The flowrs are reaching
Their petals so new
For the coolness of night
To touch morning's dew~
Hummingbirds fly swiftly
To flowers they seek
The last day of nectar
Still on their beak~
The sunsets e're so lovely
As it bows goodnight
Twilights curtain is falling
As day wanes in delight~
A whippoorwill in distance
Greets the coming of night with song
His play is just beginning
All night
Until dawn~

Such a sweet poem Susan, almost like a lullaby! 11:30PM, maybe it's time for sleep, now that I have been soothed! Bravo!

I'm a summer early riser because I want to earn the favorite mornings... but I miss the evenings you beautifully describe as well and will have to shift sleep patterns to accomodate. I can't win.. Keep reminding me.
