Sunset - Sonnetina Quatro

Did you see the sunset past day
Across the sky colors did play
When saffron and purple then mixed
Many streaks of beauty affixed
To this rim of earth of our stay
Did you see the sunset past day
Lasting moments of time’s decay
Some responsibilities gone
To be renewed at break of dawn
Beauty is my God’s sobriquet
