So Comes the Night





Soft-rolling like a sea
Across a lea of gold
Dusk snuffs the hillside
And its tree
Into blue fold

The color-world of day
Grows dim then disappears
Upon a stage
Of charcoal gray
The cricket cheers

The pretty afternoon
Dons dewy-kissed twilight
An angel pins
The sky with moon
So comes the night
