As I sat on my porch <br />I gaze up in the sky <br />I see the calmness way up high <br /> <br />No breeze, and the sun is setting <br />I think of you and the smell of the pines. <br /> <br />I see the tall tree's so big in the night <br />I hear the chirps of birds so low <br />Night has come to all things outside <br /> <br />the end of morning leads to a new day <br />the shadows of winds so lightly they flow <br />seeing the branches just take it slow <br />squirels scamper to hide in their beds <br /> <br />bugs start to rome as night takes hold <br />now I will sleep and dream of a land <br />where we can hold each other <br />so safe by the sand. <br /> <br />Written by: ©Betty Bolden <br />8-31-04 <br />All poems are copyright! ©<br /><br />Betty Bolden<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fading-night-2/
