As Night Falls Poem by Anil Kumar Panda

As the night gathers
Around the valley like
The hair of a lass into a bun
The faint light of the
Evening has already said
Good bye to the earth and gone

Sitting in a chair I
Watch the lonely star
Blinking slowly in the north
Through the feathery
Clouds the majestic moon
Glowing slowly marches forth

Soft wind caress
My face as a piece of
Cloud paces vastness of the sky
And I feel sleepy
Listening song of the
Stream that slowly flows nearby
