Red Arizona Sunsets

Around the world there are sunsets of RED But in the desert they leave you in awe Arizona’s sunsets are breath taking Most memorable ones, I ever saw The sunset’s RED hue keep changing with time The lower the sun, the darker the hue Nature’s fantastic display isn’t long After only a few minutes, it’s through High clouds are the canvas for the sun’s brush Painting shades of RED as the curtain falls When these clouds are scattered across the sky The RED colors extend; the sunset stalls I check out the sky, when late in the day If a few high clouds is all I can see I’ll plan on watching the REDS fade away A beautiful gift, Nature gives to me
