The Artist

The artist As the sun has done its duty For this part of earth today It will gently make an exit And just dim and fade away And this spectacle is amazing See a work of art unfold Colors do their dance of splendor A sight of brilliance to behold It’s as if a gifted artist Keen on beauty and on bliss Tried to capture every essence Of undisrupted peacefulness And the blending hues and colors Make a pattern of their own So entwined, their radiation Proves they can not stand alone And this artwork keeps evolving Observant eyes would see the change Whether close or from a distance The view is never out of range And the colors become deeper As the sun steadily departs Oftentimes this exhibition Has its way with gentle hearts But all too soon the unseen artist Sets off to start somewhere again Yet another epic painting ’Cause here the darkness has crept in That which was so cinematic Compelled recognition of us all Be it glimpses, stares or gazes For the curtain soon would fall.
