Twilight
When the sky turns slate,
and grows still and silent,
and twilight touches with
its smudge of suggestions.
And all tones become hints of grey,
a comfort,
I am held in the embrace
of coming night.
I know the day is done,
quietly,
and I am in soft shades and edges.
A safe womblike place
as the night approaches
with its darker intentions.
