Sunsets For the Wise

Cream colored clouds, shine above the hill Leading birds along their way in flight All soaring with their inner will To reach a destination, with coming night I love to watch the sun set, as colors circle my location It goes down behind the wooded trees, Lowering with an aura of elation Topped off with a comforting breeze Summer still wears its coat of green As autumn now knocks on the door The sunsets will continue to be seen More beautiful, when leaves land on ground’s floor Bare trees will open up more views for me to see Where mountains in the distance will rise In the breath of winter, falling snow so free, Will then sparkle in the sunsets for the wise Heidi Sands 9/8/21

Hello Heidi ... sunrise and sunset are the best times of the day. Your vision of sunset gives a calming effect before night falls - thank you Heidi - Lindsay

I love this time of year where summer starts to bow out and autumn approaches. Sounds like you've been on another beautiful walk Heidi. Tom
