Beautiful in language and structure. The imagery conveys the transformation from day tonight with all its magic and mystery.

My favourite time of the day Your personification of dusk as a shy bride is superb The second stanza conveys the every day ordinariness perfectly I applaud

A gem. Love especially dusk coming slowly like a shy bride in a gold-red veil. Concludes beautifully too. Fx

Dawn and dusk have always fascinated my mind…and this dusk of yours has beaten all of mine! Stanza 1 is a beautiful description of nature. Stanza 2 that of mundane life…And what is the link? the line ‘…and suddenly life doesn’t seem to be so bitter! ' A wonderful poem indeed! A ten for this dusk!
