A golden beam shines on the shimmering sea The bubbling blue gives an image of tranquillity The skyline curves On the distant horizon And your nerves Are relaxed, you just sit with your eyes on The sun, as it sinks, and then melts in the sea. Against the bright background is a dark silhouette Transfigured, it seems, by the sun as it sets. A profile of solitude Surrounded by light. As the day Melts away And turns into the night! |
