The Sunset Magic

Sunset Down

Every afternoon

The horizon lights up

Swirls of pink and orange

Fading to blue and purple

Few bother to look anymore

At a blessing

That only comes once a day

Each sunset is different

No two exactly alike

Difference flows throughout

While it is the only similarity

Over the ocean

Or through the rocks

Out on the prairie

Or in an height place

You can still see a piece

A piece of something

Something never to return

A sunset

For the colors are shimmering

For a moment they stay

Only to disappear into change

Change just as beautiful as the last

This is why

No matter where you go

One thing remains the same,

A difference in sunsets

    Spectacular captures of these magnificent sunsets. Your simple and eloquent poem states the fact that no 2 are the same. Each is a unique miracle, never to be performed again. What an artist He is.
