Darkness Descends

Darkness descends
with pink and mauve in evening sky.
Darkness descends,
so quickly catch the scene it sends.
Nature paints a portrait on high
that's gone in the blink of an eye.
 ... Darkness descends

Just this evening we had a "pink and mauve" sunset, Francine. We may live on different sides of the continent, but "darkness descends" much the same way here. A beautiful portrait of dusk! Love, Carolyn
