[hometext] => This sonnet is meant for lovers of Nature far and near. It has also appeared in poetry.com before, and the 2001 edition of Samudera, my old school's magazine.
[bodytext] => When Helios dips his fiery ring beyond the horizon,
He paints the landscape a wonderful rosy shade. As liquid gold and fire dance in heaven, The birds return to every forest and glade. All is well in the world, the clouds up high Change from misty-white to violet and azure. And with the sun's retreating rays, the sky Exchanges its powdery blue hue for lavender. A drunken sun, painting the vast oceans Blood-red and gold; as it looms towards infinity. Sans blasting glare, it blushes scarlet the mountains And a calm surges across land and sea. And when this is all done, Diana; opalescent and white Ascends her throne as Queen of the Night.
