“Gratifying Sunset”

Bring me the sunset in a cup,
my love, for tonight
I shall dream
of the heavenly riches
in the dawning of the night

Purple for passion
pink for sweet love
orange for vibrance

All sparking above
but tonight, I drink them up
mixed with your sweet love
A heavenly potion
to quench my thirsty
heart

This was written for a poetry challenge write a poem, using Emily Dickenson's
"Bring me the sunset in a cup" as the starting line.
