The Sky ABlaze
The candle dances in the breeze,
Along with all its friends;
It dances and sways along with the trees.
The orange flame starts to ascent,
Up, up to the air,
Everyone starts to stare,
And soon the flame meets the sky,
The orange gold stretches far and wide,
The vibrant flame starts to fuse to the empyrean
And then, all at once, the other flames joined in too
Painting streaks across the plain, deep blue
They called it a sunset, and it was a beauty too.
About this poem
The Sky Ablaze is simply about sunsets. It describes how I view sunsets, and how it seems as if the sky is on fire.
