Beautiful Yard in Sunset Glow
Streaks of gold across the green,
a trunk as a lightbulb in the sky.
Nandina splayed as yellow-green.
The moment's frozen as we sigh.

Sasanquas painted yellow gold
their mirrored glory ends the day.
Buddleia stands up mauvish bold,
Nandina whites in broad display.

The underside of pecan limbs
were bright, but now they're forest green.
The sun bespeckles leafy slim
as the glow becomes the gray still seen.

A spider on its filament thread
swings deftly on the fan wind blown.
The day is ending. Darkness dread
we hope throughout 'til morning's shown.
