Day labourers Coil lazily to rest, Letting their barbed distractions, Melt slowly away. And the dead in their sepulchers Sleep dreamless! Beautiful expressions. Rich in night-imagery. Nice work 10+

Street lamps open their eyes/Flooding the cobalt streets/Neon bulbs blink/From hidden homes/Car lights dazzle/Like lightning……I profoundly admire utter beauty of poetic expression! A fabulous piece of poetry! (10)

Great write, Valsa-ji. I think this one is your best. What an imagery! Earth illumining herself with the smile of lights in response to the shining moon, cobalt streets (!) , street lamps opening their eyes, the barbed distractions of labourers getting dissolved in rest, so on and so forth. Thoroughly enjoyed. If there is poetry, this is it. (10)

This is the time for Life and strife Darkness descends bringing time to rest for the day world and the night prowlers roam in the woods. Beautiful poem bringing key aspects of the night. Thank you.

Your description of the modern day night with its different facets is very captivating. The only complain about the modern day night is that the stars appear duller.
