Day's Last Light
Golden sunglow
molten heat rises against slender shadows
once flowering trees...
tall skeletons without their leaves
their pink pedals once plush
lost in infinite sands outnumbering stars dust
Glowing white stratus melting like snow
over miles everlasting where nothing shall grow
Distant grand canyons and red sandstone mesas
the sun harms the lost and faithless
The camel's path...ancient sandwriting
guiding its followers until saved
the lost find thier grave
The day journey's slow the lost age quick
night promises an inviting gift
yet cool darkness seems true as myth
When faith's kept and all is hopeless despite
the odds the lost find solace in day's last light
