An Evening; Someone With A Painting At A Seaside

[At the foot of a Lighthouse one finds darkness.]-Spanish Proverb When the evening star twinkles in the purple sky He takes his brush and paints her secret eyes. But the eyes seek another face beyond the skies? When the fishing boats toss in the deep sea He sketches her uneasy heart that departs from his sacred port? And when the birds fly to their roosts He too takes his satchel and gets ready to go back to his old lonely hut. He watches in the twilight sky faraway a sad star burns in the colour of Red! Like his weeping soul. O those foot prints on the beach wash away by the rough waves and the darkness fall! nimal dunuhinga
