Magic sunset
One day the light laid itself to rest
It dropped and lit up the cliffs
It sank and set the trees alight
Red rubies clung to the twigs
Mountains copied themselves
into the lake to enhance
the magic of the sunset
It entered my dream
to strip down and scatter
the husky walls of life
till the clocks chimed in colour
A ribbon rose above the mountains
the colour of a ripened grape
the sun bled red velvet
oozing into every crease in the sky
My heart was touched tenderly
when my eyes drank in the beauty
when the night sky talked with
the vibrant voice of a cello
with low longing tones
about the ultimate show
When the black curtain fell
the moon fondly played
with frayed clouds
while a thousand stars
danced el flamenco del amor
alrededor de la luna
but I spoke a different
language in my deep sleep
while this night show ran
