pale sandy colors of the evening sky drench the air with sweetness
the cold reaches inside my jacket stealing away all the warmth from my body
I stare out from the spot, eyes dazzling as they reflect the beauty I see before me
I shiver in the cold but I care not, for the painting on display is worth my temporary discomfort
the masterpiece I gaze at creates a heat inside my chest, burning to be released
my half smile becomes a grin as stars begin appearing, shining brightly without reservation
my brain can't help but marvel at the complexities of life and creation and the splendor that we see before us each day
it just goes to show how beautiful our creator is
