My perfect day is bleeding in the sky, as an evening gust takes my hair with a sigh; frogs sing, and birds in circled flight cry. I must stop to watch the sweet changing hues, rose, lilac purple and the swirling of blues; oh, such beautiful and heavenly views. Now, red and yellow mingle in a haze, the sky is unfurling a colorful blaze; I could just stand here forever and gaze. Slowly, that bright golden sphere is sinking, falling, fading- the horizon drinking; dusk has captured my world, I am thinking. I watch as the sweet stars glide into place, then, orange moon has settled in it's space; and my perfect day is gone without a trace. _____________________ July 22, 2018 Poetry/Rhyme/The Beauty of Dusk Copyright Protected, ID 18-1045-145-01 All Rights Reserved.
