Sunset

A brush streaking across a periwinkle canvas Above the green fields of grass stretching As children to reach as high as adults. Paint smears before human eyes While the setting sun gives its long farewell As lovers loathing to part at any time. Small illuminations dot a town After the warmth of light has departed As candles being lit in celebration or remembrance.
