gloaming glow



                       The air is heavy with haze
            It's time for the sun to set
God's creation does amaze
Each sunset not to forget
                        Pink and purple light the sky
Steel-grey clouds add to the dye
Songbirds to their nest, they fly
      The orange orb descends slow
            Earth ablaze in final glow
                        Moon rising in soft shadow
The sea shimmers in bright glaze
            God paints this gloaming palette
      A range of hues meets the eye
            Nothing beats this stunning show
