There Are Those Who Can'T
As I sit on the pier the evening
Sky greets me with its soft colors
Shades of pink, purple and
Pastel blue
My eyes drink in this ever
changing Portrait of the sunset
here on the pier
High above the water I feel
Closer to it than those below
But; as with all that is external
The beauty of the sunset soon
Fades as twilight begins to
Encroach until there is only darkness
Though fleeting we are blessed
Most every evening with
This beauty
Don't waste it, don't ignore it
Don't be indifferent to it
Cherish it, enjoy it
For there are those who can't
