Where We Bid Today Adieu




 Just before dusk the sun made an appearance turning earth into a glistening shrine!


Now night gathers woodland and heath
From scenes that thrill our gaze by day
As other worlds unfurl beneath
Star-littered awnings far away
And Heaven dips its brush into
Paint jars of onyx, silver-gray
As Earth becomes an avenue
Devoid of color-warped chambray
Then we shed our color too
And melt into the haunting hush
Bidding another day adieu
As it dwindles on twilight’s brush
