My favorite picture is not painted
on a piece of paper or on an artist's
canvas. It's an image in the sky;
a sunset. It looks like a picture
by they way it sits in the sky above
the tree tops. It has the colors of a
rainbow, with passionate pretty pink,
following behind it is a mellowing
orange, almost a peach, with shades
of amber filling in the empty spaces,
and a soft baby blue blending
into the richest darkening sky, that
reaches as far as the eye can see.
And in the sky that looks like a
smooth and dark blue ocean stands
all alone one bright twinkling star.
