afterglow moments

the sun had already set
with its usual stunning manifestation of wonder
when
suddenly
the quiet calm of the approaching night
was shattered by a brilliance
that I had never seen before

all I could do was sit in awe

this was the afterglow of the sun
that had disappeared from sight

and this caused me to ponder:
after disappearing from sight
will I leave an afterglow
that will bring anyone pleasure
