Sunset Over the Mountains

Sunset over the mountains
on this dreamy cool summer
night.

Golden, Red and Orange
colors God has painted
over you.

Many miles away from
where I stand,
there nature is at
home and so free.

Painting such a picture
as our God has given
His hand print on
His creatures who

live in the mountains
so pure and carefree
on this beautiful
evening.

As I say goodbye
to the sunset and
go in the house
to store this memory
in my mind.
