Gloaming Glow

The air is heavy with haze It's time for the sun to set God's creation does amaze Each sunset not to forget Pink and purple light the sky Steel-grey clouds add to the dye Songbirds to their nest, they fly The orange orb descends slow Earth ablaze in final glow Moon rising in soft shadow The sea shimmers in bright glaze God paints this gloaming vignette A range of hues meets the eye Nothing beats this stunning show (7 syllables per line) 13th February 2023 For "Fragmented Rhyme" contest Sponsor: Emile Pinet
