Sunset

Sunset

The sky is blue

And the clouds are drifting by

Haloed by the sinking sun

All the leaves are still

The blades of grass don’t sway

Furious storms have come and gone

Now at last peace reigns

And I’m left to stare at the clouds

A daschund, a dragon, a pie

Floating in the beautiful blue sky

The mountains fade to cut-outs

As the CGI of the sun disappears

Waiting patiently to rise on a new day

Fondly I whisper,

“See you soon.”
