Evening's Benediction

The sunset was a sight to behold,
not only in the western sky;
It spilled its beauty all around
so it couldn't miss our eye.
A crater of deepest purple,
with an icing of aqua-marine;
Profound pink rose to fiery-orange
overflowing the entire scene.
A combustion of colour, ignited by nature,
was her sunset for today -
A scene that would linger in minds and hearts
before it went on its way.
