Sundown

The sliding sun pigments the ether vermilion
His unvarying routine drives him toil worn.
Accomplishing his chore and jogs down wearily
At twilight, goes down the horizon slowly.
Brilliant and flaming glints become faded
And the colossal wings of the dark unfurled
His sapped visage droops and dangles
And found rocking in the dozing ripples.
The dark pervades and bids a cordial adieu
Again an electrifying dawn kindles a break through.
