COLOR OF THE EARTH by Charlene Russ

It is known well the feeling of sadness
as the soft gray dusk wraps its arms
around the green and brown earth,
feeling the pangs of separation
from the glowing orange sun and finally seeking solace,

Yet there is a feeling of joy
across the seas when the sun and sky
gently meet the turquoise waters..

Even more vivid and brighter a mood is when,

The sun arose,
leaving the embrace of the turquoise waters
to ambitiously kiss the azure skies…
rising ever higher,
allowing the oaks and aspen to happily dance
in her golden aura.

Rising ever higher,
she never remains yet always returns with exuberance.

In her departure she leaves her beautiful sister,
the silver orb of the moon to watch over and comfort
the dark and sorrowful shining seas and dusky earth
