“Summer Dusk”

by Kristina Yandle

croaking of frogs

pinging of beetles

Quickening Dusk

shade of magnolia

sun glints around

Quickening Dusk

straws of light

star spun sky

Quickening Dusk

whine of mosquitoes

scutting in shadow

Quickening Dusk

setting sun hands fire

dull tin sky

Quickening Dusk
