Sunset Soul

    Perfection in the beauty of this moment,
    The setting sun a floating torch of fire,
    Blue ring of life above the far horizon,
    An instant filled with feelings of desire

    For love of earth is strongest from a distance,
    Perspective gained while taking in the whole,
    I dream of floating high above her heavens,
    And diving through the oceans of her soul


    Anne Lenehan
