Nightfall Poem by Sonali Ganguly

Nightfall

Rating: 5.0


The sun is setting down the horizon,
leaving behind a cast of hue.
inviting the night ahead with,
glowing stars and shinning dew.

the marvellous beauty of sky changing colour,
is really something like a rare view.
see! The angel of night with moon,
is waiting ahead to greet you.

so calm and silent is your reign,
its precious among the moments few.
let me capture your magnificient beauty,
to sketch on heart's canvas and have a review.

cannot you night just wait a while,
says my eyes as some dreams are still due.
you rule the sky till the sun shines again,
and forces the stars to say adieu.

my eyes are now heavy with sleep,
keep on shinning till again i see you.
its time to say goodbye and,
lookforward to greet sun in the morning new.
