Solar Purpose
You fall behind the maple so umber
Soon to close and slumber
Broadcasted light mesmerized
Like a painted picture accessorized
Shine your twilight still
This earthly chamber you fill
Your task is done for today
Tomorrow you shall begin another day
So timeless and taken for granted
The way you radiate it’s so enchanted
I fear without you our existence would be bleak
Upon a wondrous sunset streak
Red-orange kiss across a sky
to reminisce, and sigh
Lightly dusted with a violet trim
Slightly caressed pink brim
Distant parting birds vanish in the winds
gently pushed into natures crosswinds
Pastel painted from the heavens above
Sheer wonderment to the eye on a powdered blue sky
Our human chronicles measured by the gnomon
By our sides since the history of this phenomenon
Reflected, deflected and shimmering with balance
the sunlight behind the valance
