Evening Song

Here am I

Let me paint for you a picture

Bluest skies

As the sun burns through into evening

Warm and calm

Now the dusk is due and welcome

On my skin, in my bones

I can still feel the sun

Soothing my soul

And leading me gently into evening

Here sit I in my cozy chair

I’ll listen to the world

As it drifts in through

The open window

Music and memories will fall on my ears

Songs I hold dear and I’m happy here

With myself alone in the evening

In the evening of my life

Here am I

Days go by and still I don’t see

The treasures in my life

Now I find my dreams are here around me

Every thought, every mood

That passes me by

Is so precious to me

In the evening of my life

Evening of my life
