The
Great Artist
We
sit and watch the perfect day's end.
Pageants
of color as the sun descends,
Floats
precarious with sanguine glow.
Flourishes
of light, love and life bestows,
Paints
the evening sky with wanton hues,
Crimson,
scarlet, yellow, and blue.
The
flamboyant artist thus emblazons
Heaven,
then dips below the horizon,
Painting
iridescent waves of the sea
That
dance and glisten in a final spree,
While
dark shadows stretch like lazy dreamers
Basking
in deep red sunset streamers.
Now
as darkness spreads like indigo dye,
A
myriad stars adorn the night sky.
