Sunset

Inspired by a picture I found.

Vivid colors,

Paint the sky.

A magical canvas,

Right from the mind of God.

Bold reds,

Bright oranges,

And deep yellows.

A moment short lived,

A minute hard to capture.

The air burns with the last light,

Sparkling like golden dust.

I doubt Einstein could've cpatured it,

For all his genius.

I doubt Warhol could've pictured it,

Even with his crazy pop mind.

And I doubt I could ever capture it.

 

The sun,

As it sets over dark hills,

A faint line of yellow,

Where the 'Great Egg' hits the sky.

Surrounding the sun,

A bright orange,

Fading into,

A deep,

Blood red.

The warmth ends there,

As Ra goes out.

A brilliant purple,

Jetting from the red.

Which fades deeper,

And deeper.

Higher,

And higher.

'Till it's a black,

Surrounded by Lady Selene,

And the all-seing stars.

 

One of the most breath taking sights,

Anyone could see,

But who could give justice to,

THAT?

Beautiful specs of imagery in this piece. My mind's eye was enraptured at the onset - a delightful kaleidoscope.
