Sunset

by HeWhoSeeks - Aries

Some like to rest facing east
and greet the sun each new day.
Others will sit facing west
and wave when it goes away.

Were I forced to choose, I would
rather see it set than rise,
for color is always most
lovely just before it dies.

Reason for writing:

    Change is inevitable.  I suppose this my last vain attempt at holding on to the past...
