saw the sunset
more beautiful than I remembered
lingering sunlight
playing hide-and-seek
in the swamp
colors dimming
the world was spinning
and leaving the sun
as it did daily
my thoughts
came suddenly
of her
and the day the earth moved

Many lives and many loves have come with the rising sun and gone with the setting of the sun and those who remained to consider and contemplate...and miss.

Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here...
