Magic In The Sky

I watch from my window on my bed,
As the sky changes colour from pink to red.
Hundreds of birds fly across the sky,
They’re going back home as I wave bye- bye.
Then I notice the pristine, perfect snowy white seagulls,
As they soar and swoop like magical eagles.
Satisfying fluffy clouds that we really want to touch,
Fading away getting ready for dusk.
The beautiful sun that shone bright today,
Is going away for now today.
The sun is going to sleep like we are now.
And we need to take in the beautiful scenery somehow.
I know the sky is now black and plain.
But the sun will come back again.
Now we know that it is night,
But that just means the sun has said goodnight.
