An ode to the setting sun

In the evening by the sea
I saw thee.

Your beauty matchless,
You cast a spell on me.

My heart jumped with joy,
my soul was filled with pleasure,
I wanted the moment,
to last forever.

But Alas! That was not be be.

Settling into your lover’s arms,
you disappeared from sight,
As the lovely evening
turned into night.

My heart was sorrowful,
But I knew,
Tomorrow will be a morning new.

Once again
you will leave the sea,
And shower sunshine on me.
