How do you capture
living, changing color
the shades of
sunset, across the dome,
the panorama, the full circle
catching sight of the horizon
between the buildings,
around the compass dial
Shades of lavender, of plum,
of lilac, of heather
Floral shades as the blue
becomes darker, as the yellow
fades, loses strength
dies before the night
