Day's End

The silhouette of a bird in flight against a pink and lavender sky, the pastel mural beyond the trees is a work of art to the eye. Night descends in painted hues touched by a magic brush. The most beautiful time of day as the sunset brings a hush. Fleeting is the beauteous sight. Enjoy it while you may. Sunset's colours fade to black and thus ends our day.

Nice descriptiveness and rhyming, Francine. However, the second word in the first line is spelled with an "H".

thanks, this one-handed typing on the netbook results in lots of typos
