SUNSET

                                               Now the day is over,
                                               all the world is at rest.
                                               Through a silence in the air
                                               red Sun sinks slowly
                                               down to night.

                                               In a lake of water,
                                               many images I see,
                                               as colors in the water
                                               bring back some memorie.

                                               Some promises of future
                                               also there for me,
                                               many strong emotions,
                                               as I atand there by the sea.

                                               Then I place my hand in water,
                                               to feel the coolness there,
                                               and better grasp a little
                                               of this picture now so clear.

                                               But when I raise my hand from water,
                                               all so quickly goes away,
                                               just as my hopes and fears go
                                               around me every day.
