Marilyn Lott - Country Sunset

2014-11-10 6

There is nothing more beautiful
Than a country sunset
The colors in the open sky
Are as lovely as they can get

Across the fields of grasses
You see the silhouette
Of a fence post or a windmill
As the sun that night has set

Even the barbwire linked across
The fence posts add a charm
For after all it is country
As pure as an old-fashioned barn

Orange, red, yellow and purple
Doesn’t seem possible at all
That these colors dominate
The sky from winter through fall

When we see a country sunset
At the end of a hard-working day
It shows us all things are possible
We wouldn’t want it any other way!
