Sunset

Here I am

now watching

sun leave me

sitting here

I wish it would

last for hours

but I have no

superpowers

the end of day

scoops up the

weary hearts and

fettered minds

as they take a

deep breath and just

be

a thousand wishes

light up the

night sky like tiny

fireflies soaring

through the dark

velvet backdrop of

the night sky

delighting the stars

with whimsical

designs traced onto

the night air

a quiet hush

settles over the

land as the moon

prepares for

the night shift.
