As the Sun's Rays Fade (A Sonnet)

As the sun’s rays fade, I can’t help but look
up at the heavens in amazement and
become enchanted by the stars above.
Billions if not infinite amounts are
positioned directly above my head.

The starlight guides my feet to a clearing,
I have been here the previous night,
watching the heavens, at the glimmering
seductive gazes of the stars, my love.

I am entranced by the beauty of them
and feel slightly jealous of the night sky.
I begin to open my arms to them
to be enveloped by the crepuscule
the stars that lights my world tonight, my love.
