Pink, that was the sky tonight
Pink and grey in the dying daylight
Wiped over the view from ear to ear
Makes them all naked but warm and clear
Those embroidered old men that watch the shores
Proud but lazy they gently bide their time
For soon will be night and false flattering glare
That hides their wrinkles from all who pass there
Will hold them for hours without critical eye
Still now for a moment they hold their breath
While day boasts its last
In triumphant pink
This one's about sunset over the Danube River in Budapest. The pink sunlight catches the beautiful old buildings ('those embroidered old men') that line the river and the sight is breathtaking. Once the sun has set they are lit with floodlights - another wonderful sight but very different from the natural sunset.
