God paints the sky a lovely hue
of pink that fades to baby blue
Our earth reflects back the scene
in water splashed with shades of green.
The light of day is almost done
as we turn away from our sun.
And the dark of night will soon appear
with stars above in a sky so clear.
With gratitude I pause to pray
and thank God for giving me this day.
