Sunset

Evening is upon me.


The sunlit sky


is milky

and 


multicolored


bespangled 


like


an Indian princess


descending a flight of stairs.

She has kissed the world


and leaves


blushing


into the west.


The world


is left


in a pall of shadow


and we feel 


the sadness of her leaving


the stars remaining


as reminders


of her return.
