Evening
I listen to the cicadas in the evening light.
I see the sky
As every minute that goes by,
It gets darker before my eyes.
I can sometimes see it, as the light
Becomes a darker shade.
I can watch it for a moment
And before I know it,
only the light in the sky is left.
As the colors in the sky,
begin to change into
a shade of the night sky
It reveals the stars up high.
Now the evening has past
Tomorrow will bring,
another evening that will
last only for a moment.
For you to enjoy the
Beautiful colors in the sky.
