You paint a happy and light picture here, and I thank you for that. This is not one of those heavy, morose poems I run into on here so often. Anyway, I've had many similar evenings so I can certainly relate to your sentiments here. It's definately better to leave one day's events behind with that day, and you've made the point very clear. Excellent work.
The only thing that threw me off a little were the verbs/onomatopoeias enclosed in asterisks. Maybe it was just the asterisks. I dunno. If I were to revise the poem, I would most likely do something to this effect:
Groan.
End of the day
drawing near
stress and strain
evident and clear
I hope my suggestion can be of some use. I really enjoyed this poem, and I'll definately be reading more of your writing. Keep up the good work!

This piece has a light, happy feel to it for me. It brings to me a sigh of relief that another day is passing and I"m still alive to feel it all. I enjoyed.

Well look at you....I love it!! The end of the day can be so stressful...and a little relaxation is exactly what you need. Nothing like a lovely sunset to do that, huh ;-) Glad you're here Jerri!!
