Sefier

i met you in the sunset of your life
and from where i sit watching and listening
here across the mountains of the regions,
the shimmering and gleaming rays 
of each passing time and grace
color the horizons with gold and memories that slowly
come into life with each personal revelation 
between and beyond particles of dust, soot, and aerosols 
that paint the sky with intense red
and orange hues as the day closes in 
like palms touching together in solemn prayer
to the Giver and Maker
