The Fall of Dawn

Pinks, purples, and oranges.

Color the fading sky.

The sun and moon

On opposing sides.


The wisps of clouds

Like waves in the ocean.

The colors bleed together.

Dripping down, down, down,

Until they fade.


The watercolor being plucked

Out of the heavens,

By the same paintbrush

They were painted by.


The pink

Turns to orange,

To red,

To purple,

To black.


As dusk falls,

A glittering sea of stars is formed.

Sparkling, dancing,

Through the aftermath

Of the fall of dawn.
