Watercolours in the sky

Sunsets are pretty,

Sunsets are pink,

Sunsets are red,

Sunsets are purple,

All because of the sun going down.

Silhouettes are black,

Clouds have yellow outlines,

All because of the sun going down.

Water and seas are red,

Water and seas are pink,

Water ans seas are purple,

All because of the sun going down.

Sunsets are beautiful,

Sunsets are the best thing,

All because of the sun going down.

A beautiful poem which reminded me of the sunset I once saw from my bedroom window. It was magical to watch at the end of a long, long day. A gentle reminder to a busy soul to stop. Just stop. Stop and look at the beauty around and above.
