Nightfall
you come
in evenings
as day folds upon itself
shimmering miles of sea
beckon
me
to float away
on whispering winds
pushing me
ever so further away
from the day’s
inevitable demise
as sky turns into fire
the seagulls lift
their wings
into your arms
rising and fading
into darkness
no longer
able to stay
and yet
i wait
your arrival
my heart pounding

That's a Pina Colata Sky! You describe night's descending curtain so well. I see you're from Philly. I was born and raised my family in Lancaster County, PA - though I've lived in CO since 1989.
