Because my plans for coffee didn’t pan out,
  And my sketching partner was unreachable,
And it was too late to go to the zoo,
I went to Fort Funston, 
Just God, my shadows and me.
There I was rewarded with a setting sun 
That dissolved into liquid gold 
Among thin layers of purple and aqua waves,
leaving behind a rosy halo only, 
as a sign of holiness and good.
