It’s late in the afternoon, every window is open

It’s a warm summer day with a breeze

A soft glow gleams within

It shall never, ever cease. 


The time is perfect now-things still like statues

Just like a painting or a photograph

In the sun, your eyes are light blue

I think of this time, and begin to softly laugh.


Everything is golden, everything shines

The shades begin to reflect

It’s only us; you and I

I wish I could slow the time, things would be perfect.


The sky is filled with colors, vividly painted

The sun rays look like glitter has fallen 

Some music plays; sounds were acquainted

Moments like these aren’t so common.


Time seems to slow down

And the golden rays just stay 

I hear a lovely tune that fills all around

It’s a picture perfect for display.

 

It’s better than the morning dew

The whispers of the wind whistles’ that go by

Better than the flowers outside in every hue

saying “I love you” the words that can’t ever die. 


The hour of everything bright

The hour of all things divine

Gold peaking through the blinds, a room full of light

Aging like a fine wine. 


Nostalgia finds its way in my heart

It’s quite beauteous and like a dream

Something I’ve seen before in great works of art

Like the warmth of a sun beam.


Sweeter than the taste of honey from the comb

Like the first sip of icy lemonade

I feel that I’m back home

In this hour, nothing has to age.


Similar like the rays to saturn

The glowing amber in the sun

Like lace; every stitch and pattern 

Golden like a trophy to be won

 

Prettier than the golden daffodils or any golden flower

It’s like a spot light, something to endeavor

It’s the golden hour

Let’s enjoy this moment together.

Ie always loved writing poems even when I was younger and just in my 8th grade year, I began to write songs. I began to write my own music and listen to other Artist that struck my interest. This poem is entitled ¨Golden Hour¨ and I was inspired by two amazing songs: ¨Golden Hour" JVKE and ¨Photograph¨ By Cody Fry. A golden hour is when the sun is just soon getting ready to set or rise early morning. It makes all things seem that they are painted with gold and everything seems even prettier during this time. Lots of memories I share with friends, family, and my partner during this golden hour.
