Sunset

The ripples flow steadily then flutter away The illusion of an impossible feat The Earth consumes the sun at the end of the day A beautiful sight, a sun setting treat Somehow it seems like the sun melts in the ocean Extinguishing its light, all in slow motion We sit and admire it, me myself and I Until the stars are sprinkled, above in the sky The sea gulls hastily, on a fishing spree To avoid being caught by the night Calling to others with a will to stay free As they fill the sky in a frantic flight The breeze blows as if to sweep the impurities away Preparing the Earth for the birth of a new day The sillhouette of people scavenging the sands Some with metal detectors finding cans But the most breath taking of all is the firy red sky Just for a moment as the sun says goodbye All scerene tranquility so fresh and so new But this has no meaning when I’m not with you
