Another Day Ending

I look towards the setting horizon
Another ending to another day
The sun gracefully fading
Slipping into its ritual slumber
The sky, however, begins to slowly awaken
Soft pastel fingers reaching outwards
Delicately decorating the skies
The colors gradually diminishing
Giving way to the
velvety blackness of night
Stars brightly shining, like eyes from heaven
Gazing down on us from up above
And for a subtle way to brief moment
There is a peaceful hush that settles
Over this hectic existence we call life

You have the essence of a sunset in wonderful imagery captured. One can almost visualize the hues coming off the page. Well done...

RosePetals~
Such a beauty to greet me as the
sun peeks into my day ....
kissing your beauty of the night adieu` !

I shall wait for another lovely
sunset as they are my favorites by far.
Thanks for this little beauty !
