Whispers of the Night

A Villanelle Journey Through Twilight's Dance

By Lylonie BennettPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

In twilight's hush, where shadows gently play,

A canvas painted with the day's farewell.

A whispered breeze invites the night's ballet.

Beneath the stars, our dreams find their own way,

A cosmic dance, where wishes often dwell.

In twilight's hush, where shadows gently play.

The moon, a lantern in the grand display,

Its glow an echo, a celestial knell.

A whispered breeze invites the night's ballet.

The world below in sleep's enchantment lay,

A realm of whispers, where mysteries swell.

In twilight's hush, where shadows gently play.

Through sleep's soft grasp, our consciousness may stray,

To realms unknown, where fantasies foretell.

A whispered breeze invites the night's ballet.

In slumber's arms, we navigate the astray,

A journey deep within, where musings swell.

In twilight's hush, where shadows gently play,

A whispered breeze invites the night's ballet.
