Nature at Night

by Susan Doucet

As the bullrushes bend
The sun dips down
Butterflies flee away
With their angel kissed wings.
Dusk is all around.
The shining lake breathes silently
Earth's smallest creatures scatter.
Sparkling sand is sprinkled everywhere
Beige and brown
Soft pink hyacinthes 
Pointing up to the sky.
A  gentle breeze carries their fragrance.
This is sweet harmony all at once.
