At Twilight Poem by dipak adhya

At twilight

When I woke up after a long midday nap
Evening was descending
Oh! I missed the afternoon
With the twittering of birds
That come to our courtyard

Now in twilight
The night-blooming jasmine
Is putting off its clothes
The fragrance is coming through the casement
A little latter with the stars
The moon will come
Today I'll kiss her forehead
With ever lasting love
I must make the moon
As mine with whom
I'll spend the rest of night
I'll spend the rest of life
