At Nightfall Poem by Nosheen Irfan

At Nightfall

Rating: 5.0


When the day is done
and a silver moon rises
on the crest of heaven
full, self-assured and bright
in the midst of envious stars
that shine with all their might,
a dream wakes in me
of love, more resplendent
than the sky I behold.

This is perfect, Nosheen. How resplendent indeed the heavens, and how powerfully beautiful within us the wonder of love. Your writing here is so precisely complete. You capture the magnitude of such a topic with such efficiency. Bravo, my good poet!

Hi Nosheen I take moon here, as a metaphor for for a lover visiting his lover at nightfall. All made up and handsomely attired to impress his love. He is in 'cloud nine' as he knows that his love is waiting. And confident too! All his friends are envious, naturally.
