Copper on Rose and Dusty White

The sun glowed tonight on the greying white house
Under the bud-laced magnolia on Skyview's hill


Copper on rose and dusty white
Ancient setting on aging dwelling
On freshest green and pink


Simple, splendid, and mine
This hill I love
This setting sun
Faithful brook for weary soul


I could never tire of that copper glow


Or the still crisp moon in the blackest blue
Over the greying white house


Where the lights glow warm


And call me home


To Skyview's hill
