The Pink Sky


In the evening as I was strolling by,
I chanced a glance upon the sky ,
In awe my eyes opened wide
As I was hit by the fuchsia tide
Burnt oranges melting into pinks,
Deepening, darkening as the sun sinks.
A dog barks, a car goes by
As I stand staring at the sky.
A silent shout escapes my mind
Where in the world would I find ?
A treasure so pretty, colours so bright.
Just around the corner, such a splendid sight.
If only today the time stood still ,
And my world shrunk to my window sill,
With my eyes, I would internalise
The slowly darkening, pink skies…….
