Transient Glow

My gaze is lost in brushed delight
Of prism ray that sails afar
Across a mountain peak divide
All hushed, against one shooting star,
With tints of orange and mild- reds.

Each creature halts in voiceless awe
While I, another soul enthralled
By wonder owned by godly hands,
As dappled sceneries unfold
Like celestial glow of lore

On this twilight the legend holds
My native heart in transient pose.
Admiring wave of glittered veil,
I leave my heart as time forgoes 
A blinking vista etched on bone.
