Sunset Shadows

Sunset shadows slip slightly
   Color by color into vast expanse of sky.
I watch them go;
   Watch them cradled between a pair of palms.

The laughter floats among their clouds
   And mingles with mixed medleys of moonlit sky.
Luminaries will twinkle as if keeping a secret.
   Fresh breezes will touch a kiss to our bare flesh.

Waves set a tone as we dance into dimness.
   Dawn, don’t break the barriers of sleep and dreams.
Fantasies flirt with us during the day
   Until another sunset shadows.
