As Twilight Readies Skies for Night

by adewpearl


As twilight readies skies for night,
providing backdrop fit for stars,
as fireflies fuel up their light
and children search for jelly jars,
it's then the jasmine choose to bloom,
to fill the air with their perfume,
when owls and nighthawks spread their wings
and my heart with the cricket sings.
