Sunset
The sun went down today at half past four, Just as I finished
working for the week, I've seen the sun set many times before, Today, I held my breathe; and could not speak,
It
sank so slowly way out in the west, And tinged my snow capped hills a dusky pink, A sight that never leaves me unimpressed, So
mesmerised, I forced my eyes to blink,
The grey clouds in the east, were pink and blue, The sun had touched
the sky for miles around, And then it changed, took on a lilac hue, I held my breathe for silence has no sound.
For
all was well within my world today, I watched the sun until it went away.
