Colorful and picturesque expression of nature in twilight zone. Beautiful poem. The sentences 'Red and yellow dahlias caressed The twilight, where by morning Old petals will have given way To new buds softly emerging.' are really picturesque.

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..
