Country Sunset

No man’s obstruction in the way, God’s grand finale of the day On gigantic canvas of the sky He hangs his painting broad and high. The center a hot orange or red, More subtle as the colors spread In entrancing, rosy streaks As from His brush new beauty leaks. Each time it is a brand new thrill When I watch vibrant colors spill In free abandon in the west. God saves the last of day for best. Written July 20, 2012
