Everyone was mesmerised and frozen in time
The whispers in the breeze were mysterious and clandestine
The day grew late and the sun was sinking behind the mountains
splashing shades of crimson across the skies that reflected in the fountains

There was a wistful sigh of content,
then the whispers in the breeze grew silent
no secrets were unveiled
only silence prevailed

Darkness fell across the land and the moon made her way across the bay
heralding the end of another day
I thought I heard the light flapping of angel wings in flight
as the motley crew melted peacefully into the shadows of night
