Hiding Behind Mountains On The Horizon Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Sun shining as brightly as it can as it slowly descends upon a western horizon in Phoenix, Arizona, its tell-tale rays doing their best to keep earth lit enough to see what we're doing.

Now ebbing further down upon the horizon, filling the sky with brilliantly colored oranges, reds, yellows, almost hiding below the mountains, throwing shadows across the desert floor now.

Soon to be retiring and going to the other side of this world, allowing the moon to rise and light the earth in a much dimmer light than the sun's, but still as beautiful.
