Afternoon Hesperus

A red cloak covers the sky
a beautiful and somber numbing color...
Is the dark reddish solitude of the afternoon...
Offers us a show at the same time
of fear and ecstasy of wonder... !
The fiery day asks to be dark
to calm its igneous strength.
such natural beauty
in a powerful vision that makes us imagine
the tremendous beauty of the
 beginning and finale of life!
