.

There’s a cloud of pink resting on the horizon,
mixing sunset throughout the sky.
Tinged by elegance,
.           the day signals its moving end;
.           its pending goodbye.

Yet, every atomic element;
.      every condensed vapour,
.                 smiles.

With the announcing of this new dusk,
in faith, by  trust, with hope,
comes the announcement of a new dawn.

Where God’s new mercies are met and friendships are forged.
.           Friendships renewed
.                  and life is endorsed.

All foreseen by this saturated sunset,
Layering its light through low rain clouds
Accompanied by the birds in flight.
Entertaining rest as the earth spins the sun towards the West.

Dazzled. Mushrooming clouds,
.              reflect an anchored light,
as it drags over countryside, city and human might;
.       the weighty blindfold;
.       this dark sheet of all consuming night.

There’s a cloud of pink resting on the horizon,
mixing sunset throughout the sky.
Tinged by elegance,
.           the day signals its moving end;
.           its pending goodbye.

Yet, every atomic element;
.         every condensed vapour,
.                    smiles.

With the announcing of this new dusk,
in faith, by trust, with hope,
comes the announcement of a new dawn.

Where God’s new mercies are met and friendships are forged.
.           Friendships renewed
.                  and life is endorsed.

 they are new every morning; great is His faithfulness.’
