When the day recedes in a symphony of colour
Flaming the dusky sky
I sleep that night midst dreams on fire
As slumber passes by
Then I rise renewed to a sun kissed day
With hope priming my heart
Invigorated, alive, content
Ready to play my part
For like a stage that nature’s set
With all her glorious might
The synergy of heart and mind
Awakens true delight
And dreams aren’t lost in sleepy folds
Yet live and are set free
To bring the best out; realise
Potential within me!
The sky is on fire
Burning the embers of the day
Into the oblivion of night
With a wild ferocity
Blazing in the heavens
With the passion of hell
As a sea of flames combusts
To herald in another glorious morrow
Sun bursts in twilit blaze
Exploding fragmented rays across the heavens
A golden volcano of crepuscular light
Erupting on the horizon in cardinal flames
Lapping in the wake of a cerulean sky
Heralding tinctures tinged in Autumn’s russets
To glow in the fire of this setting star

Iodine line beneath red streak in sky
Time to rest heads and on pillows then lie
To breathe in the last air that spills from the blue
To slumber in darkness that’s covering you
For away to the west the ruby verge creeps
As the world in the east is now sound asleep
I look back on my school days happily
The friends I’ve made and all those hours of fun
Like fab times that are in my memory
Shining brightly like rays from a hot sun
That sparkle like the stars up in the sky
All fresh and good like grass so verdant green
That fly so free on wings of bird up high
The best days of my life that there have been
And yet now I must say a sad farewell
And move to a new school further away
To make more friends and hear a fresh class bell
As new beginnings open up each day
Yet still I will have learnt so much from here
As now I step into my seventh year

Awake renewed oh setting sun
With fresh vitality
And shine so bright tomorrow do
For one and all to see
With heat to warm the coldest heart
And rays that radiate
The solar spirit of your star
Inspiring minds first rate

It’s drawing into evening
Time to bid farewell to day
To welcome now the twilight in
A special kind of way
To stir and wait for nighttime
To wish upon a star
But first to see the sunset
Spectral sky ahead so far
To dip into the water
Of dusk so silently
To renew and rediscover
The moonlight’s pure beauty
The day laid soggy
Soggy asunder the grey dispersing clouds
Puddles splashing
Roads steaming
Branches dripping
Dripping damp!
Damp that hung beneath the spectral sunset
Moisture hanging
Mist suspending
Destiny calling
Calling promises!
Promises inspiring a new tomorrow
Warmth renewing
Sultriness drying
Summer Arriving
Arriving on the wind past April showers

Oh clouds so full of majesty
You sail across the sky
With vibrant gowns and velvet robes
That really can’t deny
Your gleaming royal supremacy
As evening heralds in
Clouds mystic and so wonderful
So bright above to win
Upon the sea that billows
In swathes of vapours high
Oh clouds drift atmospherically
In cloaks to please the eye
The sky is on fire
It’s burning so bright
It’s driving the sun
Down and down, out of sight
It’s spreading its red
And strong orange rays
Cross heaven’s expanse
It’s the end of the day
The sky is on fire
It’s burning so bright
The sun disappears
To then herald the night
The night has arrived
Encased in the dark
But light will come back
With the song of the lark
