City Skylines

The afternoon finally lulls to sleep as the
Dusk rises in quiet splendor.
A new world arises in the nighttime atmosphere.

From a bird's watchful eye:
The skyscrapers shine like bumbling fireflies,
Blinking in the eyes of darkness.
Dazzling us with illuminating delights,
Synced by the midnight owl's solemn serenade.

From a worm's earthly view:
The stars wink in the dark azure sky.
While the ivory moon glows in tranquility.
Houses rest in their deep slumber,
As the silent night hymns a lowly echo.

Midnight slowly descends to the morning twilight,
As the sun begins to show her magnificence.
Another day slowly makes herself known.
Well with time on my hands I decided to make a quick poem.

The inspiration came when I would usually look at my neighborhood at night and I would see buildings lighting up, cars roaming and other things. And if I go out of my house deep in the night. I'd see stars twinkling in the silence. It's beautiful really.

I should take pictures of my neighborhood if I have the time.
