Sonnet

See the sunset purple and pretty gold
Rays of brilliant pink and streaks of light
Great clouds roll across the sky, large and bold
Scattering round the glare of glory bright

Nighttime aroma floats in from the east
And the stars begin to sparkle and glow
But on the western sky my eyes still feast
And as I gaze its true beauty I know

The summer air cools and I breathe a sigh
Moon rises in the purple and blue haze
Its glowing face smiling in the deep sky
My eyes rove back to the shimmering blaze

This bright summer day is now almost done
Down, down into the water slips the sun.
