Sunset

I like the evening 
when the sun first sets, it
Leaves behind the 
pinkish orange colors
In the sky, 

if you listen you can hear nature
 Sing, its a beautiful harmony to me.
 It's summer time,  late in the season, 
 trees are still full, nights are getting 
cool, but it leaves behind a wonderful 
feeling inside

At that moment when the sun  first sets,
 you see, and feel the art of it all. 
Then you think
How wonderful it is to be alive.

To enjoy life we must see
The beautiful things it offers
Like a scenery of a sunset
Open your heart and mind 
Set your self free
Enjoy the little things.
