The Pink Evening Sky

Eternity witnessed anciently and again.
Lost souls in retreat; visions isolated.
Perpetual fears encumbering freemen.
Daunting dreams with doubts amid young and aged.

Time never ends feelings of desperation.
Souls hiding in solitude sink deaths anchor.
Drowning in self-pity and isolation.
Then, comes faith, and happily-ever-after.

Love lifts life like floating clouds reflecting brightly.
The pink evening sky paints the world’s uplifting.
God watches as sunbeams light the night beauty –
Strongly fortifying, God manifesting.
