Prairie Sunset

The sun hung low in the heavens
before it proclaimed its nocturnal rest
sliding gently behind earth's round orb
 daylight slips into evening dusk
 sun gives its last burst of bright light
sprinkling the clouds with kaleidoscopic  colors
 decorating and painting the land of living skies
 nature's design
             a radiant sunset
creating an evening of pure prairie perfection.
