Dusk
Colours after sunset
As the clouds grew dim and the evening dark,
I watched the sunset make its mark
Across the sky with its beautiful hues,
That caused me to wonder and get lost in my muse
About colours and shades and swirls of delight,
That painted the sky ahead of the night,
From ferrari red to orange and gold,
This heavenly palette was oh so bold,
And it made me stand back in true contemplation,
To consider the artist’s imagination,
For who could have thought of a picture so grand,
That stretched right over across the land?
But as I watched, the image kept changing,
Which made it all even more amazing,
And as the colourful shades slowly faded,
I realised my mind was truly persuaded,
That perhaps this show which happens each night,
Should become — for us all — a regular sight,
So we learn to appreciate beauty and art,
And remember that all of us play a part,
In this great big world, underneath the same sky,
We’re all in it together — you, him, her, and I.
So let’s take a moment to glance overhead,
To take in those…
