Sunset

1992




Saying Goodbye
Like a sunset
Leaves its last light
On the clouds
In the air
In the songs of birds
In the dew of the grass...

Full of life.

Sunset
The sun magnifies as it
Lays across the horizon...
Swells and burns in colors you can see...
Fond farewell...
Leaving peace upon the shore...
Leaving purples in the grass...
Lays the mountains down to pasture...
Touches the trees...

Then it is gone.
The world lays still.
The birds are quiet.
The sky is blue...
And the stars come out.
