Under An Indigo Sky

How the evening fades to dusk, The slow drift of the tides as they Kiss soft evening sand. Gulls cry over limestone rock Their scavenging over for another Day, their echoes fill a darkening sky. A star blinks with a rude awakening, Then another and another as the day Ebbs slowly to nights soft shadows. Whispers of a breeze sigh gently Slowly giving way to an indigo sky Dismembered footsteps left behind. A child crying I cannot see fills my Ears. A burning noise demanding Attention under a waning crescent Moon just over the darkening horizon. Looking down casting its nightly smile Between high drifting wispy clouds. A stampede of cars on the nearby Road, their lights searching in the Near distance heading to dark homes. The silence of the night is broken as I Ponder and feel the night as it spreads It's sleepiness until morning takes over.
