A soft lilac
characterised the sky
While a pale light from a serene moon
hovered at the edge of the scape
Where a forlorn adieu
of a departed sunset
lingered in a haze of lavender
And there was a gentle breeze
which ruffled the tranquil waters
that abided amid infinite benthic realms
While a shimmer
issued by the dawning nightide
Skimmed the horizon
As the breeze whispered
to the frisky the sands
and frittered them away
For to scatter upon the moonlit seas
their myriad grains of quartz
Which rejoiced in a silverine glow
by the orb of night bestowed
