End of a Summer Day...
I watched the summer shadows as they stole the last of day
And so soon a bit of crimson crept across the evening way
In the precious cool of evening, with a happy yawning sigh
The sky reflects its own gladness with the black wings flying high
Oh, those lovely summer shadows that can fill my world with love
That fall across the pathway from the trees that crown above
The day is folding like the moths that close their wings
Children come inside, and lights in windows bring
A sense of tranquility, with such solitude and wondrous bliss
Blessing a twilight's sky, bringing an evening's summer's kiss
