A wondrous night

The iridescent sunset
Illuminates the sky
And glistens upon the water
In hues of vivid orange, pink and yellow.
Pelicans softly drifting away from the wind
In search of shelter for nightfall.
Crystal clear waters gleaming 
As the sun waves goodbye
And the moon says hello.
A full moon tonight appears
Upon the abundant beauty of the land.
Stars come out to play as the moon's companion.
Flowers are emerging together
Preparing for sleep, calmly closing their petals.
Boats are gently swaying to the beat of the waves,
Just like a lullaby.
Street lanterns are starting to brighten
Up the pathway introducing shadow silhouettes,
Leading the way home.
Goodnight and sweet dreams dear friend.
