Night nods-----Poetry

black vines intertwine
in countryside.
myriads of flower
bloom on muddy soil.
pitch dark, the night nods.

itching mosquito bite
enhances a yawn-
as wide as darkness,
reflecting ennui.

‘moths still dance”

Gautami - I quite enjoyed the counterplay between dark and color, ennui and dance. Night indeed nods as significantly as the sunniest spring day.

Nice!
