Down by the River Murray

Sat upon the river bank
Watching the sun go down
God painted the evening sky
With amazing colours; I cannot lie
I was transfixed for quite a while
My heart uplifted; my lips smiled
How could I capture this scene?
How could I ever do it justice?
With mere words; ah glorious sight 
How could I ever tell another soul
Just how beautiful; just how pure
The oranges, reds and golds appeared
Pink hues that moved across the water
Spread out to touch all borders
Light and shadow changed anon
As the sun set magnificently
As the huge red orb went down
Until finally that painting was done...
