A Setting Sun
February 28, 2008Pink and rouge, swirls of blue,
the sun sizzling into the horizon.
Gracious waves collapsing, pale
white, pulling darkened sand.
Sand castles caving in, drooping
over, mud.
Seagulls soaring high, stretched
wings over head.
A red blanket’s edges seeking
escape in the breeze.
An elderly couple cuddling,
arms fitted tight.
Faces with a fading glow, pointing
towards the sun.
