Lovely! Tranquility enhances this "evening light". Made me wanted to be part of it. The art work complements this perfect picture of summer beauty.

Gorgeous blossoms in that picture and a beautiful descriptive haiku! I like that the "blossoms nod" and "dream" and that they are called "sleeping beauties." There is something mysterious about some flowers and what happens at night to them such as the ones which close up.

This haiku, In the Evening Light, adds the motion of nearing night with the slowly fading fauna to create this scene of transitioning beauty. Nice.

I wonder if this doesn't fall more comfortably into the 5-7-5 category as opposed to haiku. With haiku, traditionally, the first two lines run together. In this poem, they appear to be separate thoughts--related, maybe, but not run-on.
Also, haiku would be titled, haiku (twilight tiptoes in).

I'm not the haiku police. Only trying to help.

Peace, Lee

I think this is a good entry for the Haiku Poetry writing prompt.
Your short verse describes plants as sleeping beauty as night sets in.
Well done and good luck to you with the competition.
