Seaside Sunset
The sleepy sun sinks
Beneath the gray blanket
Of the restless waves
But the earth doesn’t rest
Shadowed shapes linger by the shore
Watching the glowing “good night”
Silhouettes entwine in the twilight
And drift along the sandy beach
The sun winks
And blinks one last time
Then all fades to black and gray
The murmur of the waves
And the whispers of love
Are all that can be heard
