Sunset

There is a light
A very special amber light
That turns the gray-green ripples
To blue with tints of orange

The birds are quiet
Mesmerized by the undulating water
Which reflects the dying embers of the sun ...
And blue and white shimmering golden shapes
Dance below each boat

One last cry of the gulls
One last desperate gasp at companionship
And night turns the water ...
To black
