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.
