Words of Art – Day 33 – Surrounded by Color

Surrounded by Color

Well, my friend, when your brakes stopped working
On your long drive west
You drove right under the sunset.
Drove straight into the heart of the color
At full speed.
I only hope that the colors
Are as beautiful from your perspective
As they are from mine.

May you rest in peace
Forever surrounded by the colors
Of the setting sun.
				For Thom
