A Soft Kiss

As the sun plants a soft kiss, good bye 
And leaves its imprint upon an evening sky
Rich reds, soft pink and violet hues
At times observed by oh, so few

He marks the path for sister moon
For he knows that she will follow soon
Countless stars accompanying her, shine ever bright!
Across galaxies afar this coming night

All creatures alive must stop their toil
Seek rest, refresh and humbly extol
What child-like wonder and surprise, this brings
As captured is the perfect song that nature sings!

Wow sis! I though only I felt this way about kiss, let alone a sunset! Congrats on your win, and speakin of that, we should try doing a co-write if you won't mind, even though I truly feel I can't keep up with you!

Nature is so beautiful, Audrey. Your appreciation and love for God's wonderful world are beautifully written in this poem. NOTE: Did I tell you that I am going to try to start commenting again? I have just been too weepy these past three months…commenting became difficult. Thanks for understanding. God be with you. Lovingly, Dane Ann
