Beyond Compare

Sol sheds scarlet tears from His chariot of gold. And slips over Earth's edge, to explore depths untold. Sullied clouds hover low, their bellies painted red. And treetops gently sway, as Day is put to bed. Night breezes exchange heat for cooling breaths of air. And gilded waves flaunt a beauty beyond compare. Ocean tides ebb and flow, rippling in the moonlight. And an indigo sky, morphs into shades of night. Silence scolds laughing waves splashing against the shore. And evokes a feeling, that the French call amour. A taste of paradise, as time and space stand still. While a shooting star gives romantic hearts a thrill.
