Skywatch Friday - a poem

Settled in for the night
Spotted a beautiful sky
Grabbed coat, boots, hat, mitts
Down the road I did fly
Skywatch 6:31 

Camera clutched to my chest
Facing the setting sun
I knew I had a race
Before the colours would rest.

Photos they are a prize
Glorious setting sun
Metaphors for this life
Soon in the dawn to arise

How much it is we rage
Against the setting sun
Racing to freeze the frame
Afraid when all is done.

Take the time to review
Before the setting sun
Look back over your life,
How was the race you've run?
