Poem: Sun Sets in West

The sun
above my sky
nears the horizon.
It is time to
go to the place
where light meets dark
where reality meets dream.
Blue lightens to saffron
gold and royal purple
The last light over
a deepening ocean.
It breaks into sparkles
on its surface.
It is disappearing
It is vanishing
The essence merging
with the everlasting black.
The light will return again
But this one
is gone with
a whisper of time.
