Add the Sun Which had kept so close all day
The day sought before leaving it to fill
The sky with color a soft luster of pink
and then purple. Against the pure blue
Color which refined the clouds to their
own shapes and then failed. Discovering in
them for minutes the whole material of
beauty then leaving them without light
to mock the sky losing form losing edges
and shape and definition until soon enough
with darkness they disappear entirely
