Watching a Sunset

autumn sky
color and light
before dark

summer day lingers
soft twilight
pushes away night

sunlight splinters
waves of darkening sky
settling seabirds 

sky reveals 
bright seas
heralding dark

forest roof darkens
sun streaks the horizon
bitten edges

day lingers
at twilight
ushers in the night 

sun sinks beneath sky
air borne silence
deeper than night
