Tangerine Sky

by Treischel




Tonight I delight in a tangerine sky,
As the sun set is seen through the trees.
Night birds are singing out their last lullabies,
Giving voice in the soft evening breeze.
Even tree branches, shown in dark silhouette,
Render the sky a fabulous frame
Invested with color you don't often get,
Nearest to shades of campfire flame,
Enchanting us while sun's beginning to set.

See the sight of the setting sun
Keeping its glow 'til day is done.
Yielding its light once night's begun.
