December Sunset Poem by Fred Babbin

December Sunset

Rating: 5.0


The pink-blue sky
With the grey-blue buildings
And windows all in pink
With the jet-streams flying
The pink becomes blue,
Becomes grey,
While our eye forms abstract designs
In the cold.
And the charcoal streets
With their white-blue lamps
To cancel out
The god-given darkness.
And finally, to the stillness of the night
We close our eyes
And dream of other worlds.

Yes, very mujch a painting: and with the rhythms the 'blue-pink-grey-charcoal' create wound up so restfully in the end.
