I believe I truly fathom life After twilight Pressures from the day fall away The surrounding air softens Petals appear blue, indigo, and forest green I feel like a fairy who flies back and forth In the garden Free to wander and consider the tiny Wonders of nature That really aren’t small after all When you’re the size of a hummingbird Your backyard is a hallowed haven One tree grows into a jungle and each twig Outstretched Is a passageway to heaven

Kassi, this is so beautiful and magical. The way twilight unfolds here feels like a quiet blessing, the air softening, doubts fading, petals glowing. That line about feeling like a fairy truly captured the spirit of wonder. And the ending, with each twig outstretched as a passageway to heaven, is just stunning. This piece is truly enchanting. The shift in perspective, seeing the world through the eyes of a fairy or hummingbird, brings such whimsy and reverence. You have such a gift for turning everyday moments into sacred spaces. Thank you for this moment of stillness and light. ❤️🥰😍☀️✨️
So lovely, Kassi! Dawn is more my favourite time, but this captures the essence of twilight beautifully
