Sunset Song


I know you, white blinking orb,
sitting heavenly in the sky,
I pray to your full form,
while I fly by.

Most eyes hide from your face,
losing themselves to the night,
comforted by your constant place,
settled with your flight.

I love you and your beautiful eye,
when I’m wandering the seas,
when I’m lost in dream ecstasy,
when I’m alone huddled in a tree
waiting for the clouds to cry.

The cool gales make me shiver,
I’ve been trundling for so long,
time apart from you makes my wings quiver,
but I’ll patiently sit and croon this sunset song.
