Evening Sky
The day has gone
passed another day
Of hustle and bustle of another day
And the struggles of the day
The trials of the day.
Then the evening sky appears
With it's stars dancing in yonder skies
And lighting up the night so wonderfully.
Splendor is the beauty of it all
As the night darkens the skies
And the loveliness of it all
Suddenly defines in wonderness.
The peacefulness brings on silence
And the life of the night comes alive
With the city shinning below
As a diamond glittering glowing.
Suddenly the night gives way to the day
As daylight shows its face once more...
