CHANGING SKY.....
Naked winter tree, backdrop of fire
Sunset so beautiful, never will tire
Watching a red glow, rapidly change
Twilights often similar, never the same
Before darkness, as a full golden sun
Haunting evening sky, before it runs
Into the darkness, leaving vacant sky
Silence over-whelms, until stars on high
Add changes rapidly, from molten to black
Nature's beauty, man-made scene lacks
Silent silvery moon, will dazzle eyes
As change-over completed, smile-sigh.....
Night may settles, until a waking dawn
Until dew glistens, on foliage and lawns
Reminder: nature can never stands still
Progression continues, moments to fill....
Rarely do we stop, wonders to behold
Accepting nature, so subtle and yet bold
Taken for granted, yet we understand
Disappearance possible, by human hand.....
Time for humans, to consider what follows
World deserves better, not empty- hollow
Abusive treatment, must leave its mark
Nature struggles, earth shakes, floods-fire-dark......

About this poem:
Beauty of changing colours....mesmerize and haunt.....and so often taken for granted......until they are past...never to be seen again
