Watercolour of funny kind of swallow.

Photo of the Sun setting over Dorset.
~
I look up at the sky
And see the swallows fly
Upon deepening blue
With sunset of orange hue
~
A descending red ball
And then it is no more
For nothing can remain
That out of nature came
~
And soon the heat of day
Will slowly fade away
Just like the fading light
Into the shade of night
~
Everything gently flows
In the wind that blows
And in the setting sun
That’s rising for someone
~
For somewhere someone yawns
To see and hear the dawn
To see brightening skies
Upon the swallows fly
And see the swallows fly
Upon deepening blue
With sunset of orange hue
~
A descending red ball
And then it is no more
For nothing can remain
That out of nature came
~
And soon the heat of day
Will slowly fade away
Just like the fading light
Into the shade of night
~
Everything gently flows
In the wind that blows
And in the setting sun
That’s rising for someone
~
For somewhere someone yawns
To see and hear the dawn
To see brightening skies
Upon the swallows fly
