An orange glow lingering on the horizon
Separating snow-covered lands from the sky
Entangled wildly are clouds with rays of light
Strikingly beautiful yet detrimentally final
Ending another cycle of precious life

Temperatures falling and silence setting in
The distant silhouette of our planet
Slowly vanishing out of sight
The night collapsing into the light of the sun
Soon to be crowned by a crescent moon

It is dark now where the chills creep
Adopting to the isolation which surrounds
Blackness offset by emerging scattered stars
Forming familiar patterns illuminating the sky
Long believed to guide lost souls on their path

Imitating the Sirens of past legends
Enchanting sailors of the seven seas
Luring spirits starving for affection
To be devoured on rocky coasts and reefs
Miserable fortunes by way of followed dreams

Dreams that awake from within
The shooting star across a silent night
Fantastic cravings following an ecstatic hunger
For another like sunset to be shared
With the heart of this significant other

I loved the last 2 stanzas - they spoke the loudest to me....beautiful this is.  "Enchanting sailors of the seven seas....luring spirits..."   What fabulous words and phrases you use!  I love it.
