Everything is better under a palm tree. Only Mother Nature has the best words for it.

Stunning Sunsets

 SPLENDID SUNSET
A quiet respite

Behold! It's the setting of the sun.
It's westward homecoming
Beckons an end to a journey.

Night's tender embrace though temporary
Romantic, captivating, relaxing
It's blanket - the vast ocean.

It wakens up well-rested souls in the morning
With fresh hopes and promise of a brand new day.
A full bloom sun.

Its travel comes to a halt, again, in the evening
A cycle that leaves us breathless with  its sheer beauty and majesty
Warm hearts and satisfied souls
End the day with love and gratitude.

A sudden thunderstorm came with a heavy downpour of rain. The sky's silence was broken by the wicked roars of thunders and ominously lit with menacing streaks of lightnings ... But as swiftly as the storm arrived, it sped past beyond this point leaving a sky painted with a conundrum of soothing calm and twilight's colors. There's always a sublime feeling of inner peace brought about by the setting of the sun.

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add colour to my sunset sky. -Tagore

Inspired by the song of Simon & Garfunkel "The Sun Is Burning"
The sun is burning in the sky
Strands of clouds go slowly drifting by
In the park the lazy bees
Are joining in the flowers, among the trees
And the sun burns in the sky

Now the sun is in the West
Little kids go home to take their rest
And the couples in the park
Are holdin' hands and waitin' for the dark
And the sun is in the West

Now the sun is sinking low
Children playin' know it's time to go
High above a spot appears
A little blossom blooms and then draws near
And the sun is sinking low

Now the sun has come to Earth
Shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death
Death comes in a blinding flash
Of hellish heat and leaves a smear of ash
And the sun has come to Earth

Now the sun has disappeared
All is darkness, anger, pain and fear
Twisted, sightless wrecks of men
Go groping on their knees and cry in pain
And the sun has disappeared
