Not blackpurple or midnight blue
but rose from Betelgeuse
and the diamndsharp blue of Sirius
Ruby taillights on the move
those bright green leaves
lit up by streetlights, headlights
Nights colours are many and varied
as are those of its special creatures
now behind you, ready to feed

By turns enchanting and disturbing, but either way a great perspective, Kim!

That really got the tingles going up my spine. Great use of color imagery and that chiller at the end tops it off nicely.
