Sun's Last Grace

the blazing sun's lost in its own shine
the clouds encode each of the rays,
cotton waves of scarlet, red, orange
the last signature of the sun before
its exit from the realm of day

a sea continuously sends its
audacious smile from the horizon
a shimmering gaeity of the heart
amid miles of goodbye pounded
so loudly over the seas and so
splendidly played out over the sky
two lovers panting, hugging, kissing,
looking into each other like no light
can part them
