Each and every stanza stands out depicting the wonders of twilight and the magic that it brings to nature and humanity. Loved the fourth stanza the most. To my favorites..
What a beautiful poem. The crystalline images transported me to the captivating scenes brought by the changing position of the Sun.
ONE: six stanza worded in a coziest most sweetest way, I have read them all breathlessly, (I have been several times (n the UK) , this twilight I can imagine, but your profound poetic talent, made this absorbing result. TOP Marks, David!

Breathtaking description of nature's presence x Top marks David : )

Dear David, you made yourself unattractive, but LeeAnn has set up her mind, don't you think so?
the imagery superbly illustrates it
