Sunset's Goodnight Kiss 1 and 2

Version two, a double tetractys
Sun's grandeur says goodnight with bold splashes she embraces our spirits with color. Whispering amen unto all who watch, the curtains pulled, we rest till morning's light.
September 28, 2020 Version one in rictameter
Daylight waves a goodbye preparing for darkness. Sun graces us with bold colors, relieving our bodies, minds and spirits. Whisp'ring amen to all who watch, she pulls the curtain down and we rest till daylight

Rétractes are fun and since there is no rhyme required, more expression is possible. Thanks for the read and congratulations.

thanks, Regina, good to hear from you. Sometimes, one cannot distinguish between sunrises and sunsets.
