The sun prepares himself to set
and fills the horizon with colors
that would have delighted sailors of yore.
My friends fly off to join the local murder of crows
dotting the top branches of the thin tree line.
Like tiny beads of thick black acrylic paint
on the very tips of a paintbrush,
they are poised above
a newly stretched canvas of sky.
Painting by Sara Rogers
