"laughably" poems - Hello Poetry

On darkening red sky languish low clouds as if, smeared into existence by artists knife, golden edged against clear red sky that transitions, upward to darker cover, void of light. Horizon formed by railway bank black, sprout twig and bough silhouettes of bush and tree still in winters mode, bud form begins, reach, mingling with power lines gentle bow in the the distance assemble birds seemingly in motion slow, fly seeking places known, their favorite safest roosts, whilst crying silently, seagulls solicit the close estuarys call. Serenely and unusually silently a train glides into view, slowing, prepares to halt at the nearby serving station, clouds, now red edged emanate in windows of carriages long, through moving frames the scene so pictured then - with the last carriage, gone. The backdrops reds darken as the unseen sun sinks lower to adorn skies new and so draws in the waiting night, escorting pinpoint stars, finally kissing the day adieu, Laughably today, so called ‘happiness day,’ today, where tiny annoyances grew into frustrated rage, conversation nettlesome, tension nerves to stressful result, Mentally I accept the guilt for letting me, yes me - down, yes - it is my fault. Still, a scene like this.... calms my reality within, even so, the self incriminating roundabout slowly, restarts again the anger of - my - self created weaknesses and futility. Thankfully this darkening sky creates a serene oneness in which retire I, the placid evening, now early night, calmness returns connecting me with this aspect . regardless of this view a day indifferent, tomorrow maybe be a better prospect.
