Very nice. It's a lovely image. I think the brevity of the lines and the lack of regular rhythm lends a kind of peace to it that's appropriate to the twilight. A nice tie-in with his name, too. I particularly enjoyed the last stanza.

Hello! (and surprise! ;D)

I feel like I might have read this before, but I can't remember for sure... anyway, there's no comment from me here, so I'll just read it again! :)

I love the title... most people associate twilight with a fading away of light, a falling. I like to think of twilight rising.

I was about to suggest a ' in front of "neath," but I see that would mess up that cheesy acrostic of yours ^_~ Now that I see the acrostic, I know that I have read this before. But it's well worth multiple reads!

Hehe! I like the combo spelling-poem and haiku. Very nice. :) And it's good to see that you love your characters! Hopefully they love you back!

This is cool, too. I'm not sure what you mean by "Years take flight" . . . I'm assuming the passage of time, especially followed by the next stanza.

I like "mantled." I wasn't quite sure of its meaning as a verb, but I looked it up, and it's a great way to phrase that. Well done.

Something about "Neath" bugs me. I think I'd write it with an apostrophe, but I guess it's a style thing.

Nice haiku :) I'll have to tackle Hope's Passage another day . . . almost my bedtime. ;)

uhoh, acrostics...I'm not too good at those...oh, I got it. Aw. ^^

This was absolutely beautiful. Each word seemed perfect, and it had such a serene, well, twilight feel to it. I like the lines "open ears/under centuries' passage"...it sounds so old, and mysterious and wise. The ending was really uplifting.

I love your poetry!
