Twilight Blossoming

Periwinkle blooms were a welcome

surprise on my morning walk;

this shade between a deep iris 

and cornflower blue Is so calming, 

like twilight blossoming. 

I’d like a scarf made from these petals, 

a silken-coolness against my skin,

the softening hue of evening draped 

over my shoulders as I watch the moon’s

first shower of silvery beams falling,

like a gentle rain lulling us to dream.
