Nothing Like The Darkness

There is nothing like the darkness To set the stage for beauty The sunsets and sunrises Are simply nature’s duty And they show up very brightly When darkness is the backdrop It truly stuns the senses You have to just plain stop And enjoy the colorful scene And while you are standing there Nature has other things In the darkness it wants to share A simple wild thistle stands It’s purple blossom bright Makes you feel that everything On this day will be alright Wild grasses wave in the breeze As the day ends or a new one begins We must stop and enjoy the darkness And the beauty that it sends!
