Evening's Beginning

Have you seen the evening's content?

As the light fades and falls

Things you knew morph their shape

Till you wonder if you knew them at all


A strange darkness descends

Upon the quietening of the air

And with the wind falls like leaves

The burdens of toil and care


And with its quiet comes the peace

Of the darkness of the night

Where what is far cannot be seen

Out of mind once out of sight


For as the sun fades to tomorrow

And the moon comes into view

The day and its troubles are over

But the night, my friends, is new

The Chair beneath the Tree

How forlorn that chair is Resting there on its own How sad and grim it is That companionable seat, alone

Castles in the Sky

I should like to lie in a garden And look up at the sky Where the clouds would freely roam And the gentle birds would fly

Winds of Memory

The wind sings with memory And I remember each time and place When I closed my eyes in appreciation As it blessed me with its grace
