A new day a new haiku

Though we bid farewell To the days we left behind They go ever on
We shine in the sun August days are almost done And we all had fun
Concentrated light As troubled waves crash and churn Distilled into song
The searing sun sinks Back down into the cool sea Waters cover me
Cloud shadows droop down And close your rusty pupil My cold shoulders turn
What a privilege To have lived another day And feel the sun’s rays
This is a sunset Why are we sitting inside, Days wasting away?
The evening breaks up In a thousand splintered clouds We too turn to dust
From the furthest flame Sinking in a holly frame Star of highest fame
We climbed up the hill To catch the last on the sun We’ll stay forever
Long light shining through Captivating sunset hues Everything is new
All the stars align And all the puzzle pieces Fall into their place
