Afterglow
look to the East when the sun is low
pause with willing eyes to seek
what finer hues in contrasts show
we rise at dawn, rough plots to hoe,
another trek to another week,
look to the East when the sun is low
through afternoons we tread on slow
our senses dull, none bespeak,
what finer hues in contrasts show
vain ambitions fail to grow,
tempests rage yet do not speak,
look to the East when the sun is low
tell, what timeless craft do artists know
to refine a lissome blush of cheek
what finer hues in contrasts show
do not succumb to that undertow
step out of time, let light critique
what finer hues in contrasts show
look to the East when the sun is low
