Fay Slimm - Mellow the Sky

Shot-through winter sky
Bleeds, windless, with evening mist.
Kisses each distant horizon.
And I count the hours.

Showering blues descend,
Hueing low hills, lavenders
Frill the whispering trees, as closing
The light, dusk now flowers.

Calmly the night dyes
Drifting late clouds solemnly gray.
Day ends, surrounded by quiet, lying
Hushed - - dark now lowers.

Each shimmering star
Breaks silvery, gleams and shines
Across space, guiding his way, he
Appears, - - - I 'm empowered.
