My eyes followed the setting sun
As it sank into the distant hills
It followed the raindrops in the air
Pitter-pattering on window sills
The cool breeze stroking my hair
Tears of joy in my eyes it fills
My ears sought the river’s voice
As it flowed past me in silent grace
When it hits the stones nearby
Its droplets hitting my smiling face
The twilight in the reddish sky
Like magic conjured in nature’s ways
The fragrance of the lush red roses
Filled my heart with love anew
Played with my deepest emotions
Gave my life a brand new view
The stars now appear above me
In the sky like drops of dew
Sweet honey my tongue sought
Its taste just blew me away
Took me back to that joyful place
Where my heart just begs me to stay
Where I can watch the sunset again
Where someday my children can play
My heart only sought hers
The smile on her face
The sound of her laughter
Her charm and her grace
My hands clasped in hers
Till the end of my days
