Let Evening Come Comments

i cannot sleep until ai read this poem oruntil i listento it here on the computer...then i can let myself sleep in the evening.......as night comes on.

Jane Kenyon's poem 'Let Evening Come' was featured in the film 'In Her Shoes', in a scene where the character [played by Cameron Diaz] reads the poem (as well as 'One Art' by Elizabeth Bishop) to a blind nursing home resident.

Let Evening Come Let the light of late afternoon shine through chinks in the barn, moving up the bales as the sun moves down. - ITALIAN: Lascia che venga la sera Lascia che la luce del tardo pomeriggio splenda attraverso le fessure nella stalla, muovendosi in alto sulle balle di fieno all'abbassarsi del sole.

Let it come, as it will, and don't be afraid. God does not leave us comfortless.............inspiring write of strong conviction of faith in God...

There's a genuine peaceful beauty all through this wonderful poem.
