Looking at the sunset, beautiful shades of red
The warmth that it sends you, the glow it is emitting
Makes you realise, that life is really worth living

The way it sweeps downwards, all over the land
Transforms it to picturesque, instead of looking bland
They say red sky at night, a shepherds delight
I say it's everyones, a wonderful sight

Ready to return to my house and shut my back door
One last glance upwards, to see the sky once more
The sun is down so very low, I feel I could reach out, touch it
But to bed I will go, smiling, awaiting my next sunset [comments] => 5 [counter] => 495 [topic] => 27 [informant] => parkman [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => NaturePoetry )

Shades Of Red

Standing all alone,staring straight ahead
Looking at the sunset, beautiful shades of red
The warmth that it sends you, the glow it is emitting
Makes you realise, that life is really worth living

The way it sweeps downwards, all over the land
Transforms it to picturesque, instead of looking bland
They say red sky at night, a shepherds delight
I say it's everyones, a wonderful sight

Ready to return to my house and shut my back door
One last glance upwards, to see the sky once more
The sun is down so very low, I feel I could reach out, touch it
But to bed I will go, smiling, awaiting my next sunset
