Poet’s Corner – Before Nightfall
The day’s rain turns pink and green islands bright yellow
Whispering clouds enlighten the scene
The night remains pearly and soft between darkened clouds
A crescent moon appears as the summer triangle
Emerges long before nightfall
As lights in a sequence of colors paint the bay
In an expanding sky.
The poem, “Before Nightfall” and the image, “Moon Gate” by Marsha Solomon
