Twilight

Twilight is my favorite time of day, I love the energy in the air as night is falling. I took this picture Sunday evening, it reminds me of one of my favorite poems/songs.




In the Gloaming

by Meta Orred


In the gloaming*, oh, my darling!

When the lights are dim and low,
And the quiet shadows falling,
Softly come and softly go;

When the winds are sobbing faintly
With a gentle unknown woe,
Will you think of me, and love me,
As you did once long ago?

In the gloaming, oh, my darling!
Think not bitterly of me!
Tho' I passed away in silence
Left you lonely, set you free;

For my heart was crush'd with longing,
What had been could never be;
It was best to leave you thus, dear,
Best for you, and best for me.
