The Twilight Hour

The twilight hours

soon fading away

as the misty dawn

comes to take its place

and in that state between

dreams and wakefulness

it's there I see your face

memories of times

not so long ago

a kind sweet smile

a loving embrace

the gentle reassurance

of your voice

chase away the

dark of the night

and with the rising sun

and the morning light

the thought of your presence

brings me great delight

so I will grasp

and not let go of

the wonderful sound

of your gentle voice

your kind smiling eyes

and endless grace

'til again in the twilight hours

once and again

I feel your presence

and see your face

There I will find myself

in your loving embrace
