Poetry: Sunsets

As the day settles down
And readies for some rest
Sun's radiant colors
Stream brightly on the crest

A brilliant splash of colors
Pours out across the sky
Deep reds, pinks and orange
Clings tightly, evading night

Sun casts vivacity
Lighting up the skies
Breathtaking moments
Never lacking of surprise

Eventually sun must sleep
Shadows envelope the sun
Nighttime slumber settles in
And sunset's performance is done

While darkness wins the clash
Each and every instance
Tomorrow is a new day
Sun will again have its chance
