Love the mention of the dandelion since I am a big dandelion fan. Your nonet is smooth and takes the reader to another place. Glow upon my soul is also a wonderful line that enhances the poem.

Your poem is in excellent syllable count for the nonet
excellent use of enjambment
beautiful descriptive detail
I love the simile, like some dandelion adrift in soft wind
and the closing sentence has a lovely tone :-) Brooke

I think the title for your poem is beautiful, as is the body. After reading this I can appreciate night fall and long to become sleepy! Your words were like a magic spell being cast upon the reader.

Excellent

This poem creates a surreal scene that seems to allow the consciousness of the moment to drift in a pleasant way away from the overwhelming darkness. Nice.

A pretty nonet;
Nice alliteration:
"silver"
"soul"
"shimmer";
"stars";
"scatters through skyline"
"like some dandelion"--nice simile utilized here;
Celestial beauty to admire--a wondrous display of God's creation.

This should be a strong contender in the nonet competition. This is a pleasant message, artfully presented. The metaphor on the dandelion was a neat touch. Well done.
