Magic Of My Sunset Zone

Walking with passage of time

I’ve reached the twilight zone,

Not so young, active or beautiful

Yet, I do not, evermore,  moan.

It’s true that I have slowed down,

I view surroundings at much leisure,

Trees, breeze, cascades and flowers,

Offer me a new found pleasure.

When sun and the  nimbus clouds ,

Play hide and seek, they show,

On the heaven’s large canvas,

A colorful, radiant rainbow.

With melody of their music,

When clouds burst in rains,

Nature, in all its glamour,

Washes down my pains.

Gradual approach of dark night,

Like death, is only logical,

Phases of moon, galaxy’s glow,

Prove, that still, life is magical.
