Sunset Poem 1/19/21

Accompanied by blushing hews The darkest skies chase the magnificent sun to it’s watery grave The ocean waves rage, patiently awaiting the burning head as it submerges into the depths The baby blues turn to royal shades The gentlest pinks fade to sickly yellow The ocean greens turn to harsh steel And down dies the sun Its accompaniment is now red Red as blood The moon usurps the sky and reigns over the stars Its silvery gleam rains on the ocean waves It rains over the sleeping multitudes of creation I witnessed this all I witnessed the colors merge into black And I exult in the solitude and the splendor and the magnificence of the moon In the peace of the waves as they crash And I lift my eyes to heaven and thank the Lord of hosts that he has given such beauty to the start of each day
