Poem: All those sunsets By Christopher RoweI've watched the sunset on the Tagus, Where fadistas sing and sway. Seen the green flash at Key West, So beloved of Hemingway. Beneath the pier at Santa Cruz, Sea lions' barks mark close of days. From the mountains in Old Mexico, I saw brilliant scarlet rays. From atop the tower Eiffel built, From his gift, Liberty, too. Paris, New York Harbor, The sun sets, dies the blue. Around the Maker's aging Earth, All those sunsets, endless charms.

Why?
