The Setting Sun

The sun is setting,
its pink glow hugging the mountain tops.

The clouds bow at its glory.

The peace of night begins to set in.

Dreams waft through my window
and the crickets lull me to sleep.

Nice write. Reminded me of staying at my grandparents home in the mountains of Utah, listening to the crickets.
