Sun Sets ... To Rise Again
~Marge Tindal~ 1999

The azure sky
put to rest ...
with the palette
of colors
God uses
at sunset.

Sunsets glow
pulling the cover
of night around her.

Over the lake
she dips her rays
into the waters edge.

Shades of magenta
touch the horizon,
blending upward
into a palette
of crimson rose.

As she dips further
the colors
scheme
to become
the most
beautiful
array.

Almost
without warning
she's gone
except for
one last kiss
of midnight blue.

With the morning
she rises
from the lake again.
Proudly wearing
deep orange
peeking
from behind
soft, soft
shades of yellow
streaking.

UKHero - And my thanks to you for liking it.

Thanks to all of you for visualizing it.
