The Final Peace

\nThe sunset settles slowly bringing beauty to the West,
\nA fiery opal trinket pinned to Mother Nature’s breast,
\nA thousand ugly rooftops changed to choppy golden seas
\nAnd blackbirds serenading from the tops of cherry trees.
\nThat fluffy salmon ribbon was a contrail at its birth
\nBut now it’s slowly spreading like a swell of gentle mirth,
\nThe clematis is beeful as the day begins to die,
\nBeneath serene perfection of a light blue pink stained sky.
\nSome magpies start to argue on the fence across the street,
\nA pigeon’s looking puzzled but he knows he can’t compete,
\nThe starlings have departed and the breeze now sighs its last,
\nA freshly finished painting of a world that’s almost past.
\nThe touch of friendly silence changes everything I see,
\nAnd I’ve got scones and butter and a large brown pot of tea!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
