South Saharan Sunset

The setting sun smears the western clouds orange
Africana sunset hue
A Full moon rises on the east
And steals its way stealthily up the heavens
A portable portrait in the vaulted skies
A silhouette painting of a nursing mother
Playing hide and peep between the clouds

A beautiful sunset with a rising full moon. What more could a nature lover ask for. Wish I'd been there to see it!
