I scan yon ridge of blue-stemmed prairie,
Whilst feel the cool of south wind's blow,
How long I will on this spot tarry?
I must admit I do not know.

My weary eyes are wont to gaze
Upon a setting sun,
Not rise of Sol nor noontime blaze,
But on vespertine's horizon.

I sit and wait for day's demise,
As summer sun is now descending,
Twilight's fall gilds western skies,
Soft glow of daytime's ending.

I scan yon ridge at end of day,
And from this spot I shall not stray.

And under gray of skies and cool of day,
Where great bonny blue petals are displayed
to my ear comes kind words so fine
from a prairie's poet, sweet words, sublime.

I love this
"I sit and wait for day's demise,
As summer sun is now descending,
Twilight's fall gilds western skies,
Soft glow of daytime's ending."

and the summer evening skies
