The HUSKING BEE
Its Your Day
| Start 1t With a Laugh
SUNSET.

SUNSET.
oh, beautiful golden sunset,
Bidding farewell to the day.
As you sink beyond the horizon
In the distance far away:
Comfortable among your pillows
OF lovely pinks and blues.
Shedding a radiance about you
As you say your nightly adeus.
You have cast spell OF longing
Within my heart today,
That the sunset OF my life
May be as the close OF day;
Leaving trail OF kindness,
OF happiness and love.
To radiate my memory
When my sun sets above.
