And the sky burns

The sun sets early in Deer Park -

a place with a green and tranquil heart

and where a stream always sings,

here at the gentle foot of massive Platteklip.

But then, when driving home,

a fire of a sunset jumps from Lion’s Head

and sets the sky alight with burning clouds,

freeing the city, the mountain, the world.

While in Deer Park all was soft, green and tranquil.
