********
strong shafts push back
the dusk,
color cupped in this
exquisite
slice of day,
a silver heartbeat
caught
in shadow’s slow embrace,
cooling strands
of light
swallowed
in the slow
and undulating rhythms
of the night.

So very beautiful Cindee!
sigh…this just feels good…i love the wianing day for its beauty and the night for its cool relaxing touch…
Very encouraging, uplifting and well written.
You could have penned this piece while watching my Sonoran sunset. Gorgeous!
I love the hour of the monkey (see my post on my philosophy blog — though I doubt it is a blog you’d like (as it is a “faith-free” blog) , you may like that post).
This is fantastic! What lush writing, and descriptions–mmmm very soothing and just lovely. “a silver heartbeat caught in shadow’s slow embrace” love that!
Beautiful, Cindee, photo and verse. The added scripture was a beautiful touch. I particularly liked the Proverbs.
REALLY lovely, Cindee!

I love the relaxing and peaceful vibes this poem is sending out. It’s such a beautiful time of day!
Lovely piece, wonderful imagery. I like the soothing scriptures too.
You must be feeling better, stronger – because beautiful poetry is flowing through your fingertips once again. Thanks for this one.
