Death of the sun.
Death of the sun.
The sun was at the verge of death
when it was at the edge of horizon.
The red funeral fire was burning at its beneath.
The dim constellations were paying their respect
to the venerable disk of fire
when the night journey was about to set.
The last bird of the day
sang the funeral song.
The sky was tinged with casket grey.
An ominous silence is prevailed.
A gust of wind heaved sigh of sorrow
as the sun is going to be shrouded.
