Crystal Rain
Purple hues of twilight fall
As crystal raindrops drip from the window sill
A golden oldie is playing down the hall
that fills the heart with a sentimental thrill
Then comes the blackness of the night
With ghastly ghouls and ghostly sights
But in the white light of the dawn
All the dark fears are gone
Red roses glisten with the morning dew
Pink hibiscus welcomes bumble bees too
Morning gives way to a red hot noon
When marmalade butterflies flutter and swoon
As gray clouds in the distance loom
Heavy rains give shades of green a liquid boon
Rain concludes giving rise to the sun's amber glow
Illuminating a plethora of colors that paint the rainbow
Evening brings forth majestic orange sunsets
The golden yellow moon will rise yet
