Sunset


 Today
 I watched the setting sun slowly change
 a golden line of cloud to purple ink
 on a serene robin's egg background
 above a molten lava horizon.
 High above, wisps of bluegrey scattered
 into a dome of pure hyacinth.

 As darkness deepened, rural yard lights winked on,
 earthbound stars.

                                                   l.m.  20/1/14
