Very beautifully written and full of comforting and relatable word pictures (and a great photo). I would like to include "Twilight's Mauve" in Crown Valley Quarterly, my showcase for authors, painters, photographers and other artists (especially new ones). Take a peek - if you would like any changes I'll make them immediately: https://crownvalleyquarterly.wordpress.com/2024/06/07/twilights-mauve/

This was a calming reading experience. I always found Twilight to be a sort of refuge tucked into the day for us to just rest and dream, if only for a bit. Your poem captures so much of my feelings into words it's crazy!

Thank you for such lovely comments, Daniel 💙🙏💫

Morpheus, cradle me deep

My mind's turmoil denies rest

I try to still for night's sleep

But futile yet is that quest

A lovely poem, thank you, AC 💙💫🙏

Inspired by yours (and a sleepless night a couple days ago caused by computer issues).
