Sunset And Beyond Poem by Joseph M Donatelli

The sunsets grayly over the hill and trees
Colorless the winter evening light retreats
The dullness fills me with feared deceit
Dark gray sky light gray clouds overlay
Creativity working I imagine a foray
Of colors in the sky to inspire hopes way
Orange under blue reds above splay
The yellow orb falling to center display

Bright white beams flash off the page
Focus attention on nights dream stage
Following darkness imaginary colors fade
Preparing the way for sleeping escape
Filling the weary with a strange parade
Confused stories dance up the charades
Waking me suddenly shaking disarrayed
Having a vision I'm in the wrong place

Another nights going quickly down hill
A disturbing sleep time raw anxiety fills
Feelings of insecurity rattles and chills
Hour by hour watching the clock kills
Iratated aggravated tensing mind builds
The frenzy of nightmares terrors fulfills
Finely a stream of light breaks hell of night
Mornings coming ends anguish with light
