The setting sun imparts a glow <br /> upon the surface of the lake. <br />In shades of red which come and go. <br />Some are translucent, some opaque. <br />From palest pink to deepest red <br /> and every shade that lies between. <br />They last until the light has fled <br />and darkness falls to rule the scene. <br />I sit and watch in wonderment <br /> the sun descend beneath the sea <br />To me it is quite evident <br /> that all is as it ought to be. <br />The moon will rise to rule the night <br /> and paint the waters silver white. <br /> <br />19-May-08 <br /> <br />http: // blog.myspace.com/poeticpiers<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/water-colour-for-m-lady-yuri/
