Daylight

Daylight
     drifts down
Orange sun
     hangs heavy
Pauses a moment
     one last glow
     one last ray
Sky shifts gray
     dims quiet
     breathes still

My day
     done
Sunlight gone
   
Pause a moment
     a thought
     a prayer
Quiet still
     Light within

The sun sets behind Iowa silos, barns, cornfields, farmyards.
