A soft yellow ember,
the sun is arising
Horizons remember
the smile on your face

Meadowlarks sing
as the morning approaches
The start of a new day

Cotton candy swirls
on a pink flamingo sky
Late December wishes
that are slowly floating by
Apricot horizons
glowing softly ‘cross the hill
Twilight born emotions
falling on this night so still
Sweet...

When tuscan tunes of twilight,
cascade as clementine confetti,

swirling to the symphony

Join the lines of highways up north

Cool autumn nights
and warm sweater wishes
Sunset desires
in apricot kisses

as sapphires glisten
Echoes of love,
