The Beauty of Sunset

The skies with dancing clouds in shades
 of blue, pink and gold,
All vibrant and bold.
Oh! What a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
The Beauty of Sunset is a magical transformation
 from daylight.

The water in the lake mirrors the changing colours, 
Giving a sense of calm and inner peace,
Birds overhead singing their final song, a form of grace, 
As they return to rest at the end of their day.
And in awe, I witnessed, today fading slowly away, 
soon to be another yesterday.

The beauty of Sunset, a sense of wonder,
 one of life's simple pleasures,
Giving moments of joy the memory will always remember and treasure.
So, let us pause and take it all in, for the beauty 
of Sunset’s display is one of nature’s finest arts.
It’s a gift and a reminder to appreciate and cherish 
each day with gratitude and a grateful heart.

Hello Zyrool Gifford, I love the sunsets. Theuy are beautiful to watch. I like it better when it is over the water. When setting it looks like it is going into the water. Blessings my friend. /Darlene/

Hello Zyrool Gifford, I love the sunsets. So many different colors in a sunset. A sunset is more beautiful when a body of water reflects the sunset. Yes it is mesmerising. Enjoy the rest pof the my friend. /Darlene/
