Darkness

In the shadow of sunset
Dusk embraces the night
Life moves from sight to senses
Trusting in what is known

Daylight is forgiving
Allowing night to flourish
While in sanguine silence
Embracing thoughts of dawn

Time moves haltingly
While darkness remains still
Forcing the surrender
Of our yesterdays

About oldmainer

I am a retired manager living in Southern Maine and a would be writer of poetry, narratives, short stories, and random opinions, and that's how Oldmainer was born. Recently, I decided to try an experiment. I added photography to the mix, using only a cheap cell phone with a limited camera and the editing software that came with it, and added the blog site Inklings at poormanspoet.wordpress.com to showcase the results. So, feel free to use whatever you find interesting or worthy, but please honor the terms of my copyright when and if you do. They may not be much, but they are still a piece of me. I appreciate your checking me out and hope that you find something that will encourage a return visit. Thanks for stopping by.
