Finnish poet Arto Melleri wrote an ode to Sun.

I sing a lullaby along with the fading rays.

How have I grown to love them, these kisses-goodnight?

The Rising of the Sun has too much up-swing in her hips, The Noon,

She`s unreachable, high in her spheres, but as the evening starts to creep under her dress,

She grows lenient

And ever so gentle.

How is it that I`ve grown to like the warm smile of an elderly woman?

I like what you did here with sunset imagery and feelings.
Thanks for the link.It is fascinating reading, and introduced me to writers I did not know but will add to my reading list.
