Day Is Done

bluea nd yellow sunset
Day is Done

When I took this photo it was not lost on me that the sky is blue at the top and yellow at the bottom, and as I searched for a metaphor the 1969 anti-war song came to mind:

DAY IS DONE
Peter Yarrow -Silver Dawn Music – ASCAP

Tell me why you’re crying, my son
I know you’re frightened, like everyone
Is it the thunder in the distance you fear?
Will it help if I stay very near?
I am here.

Refrain:
And if you take my hand my son
All will be well when the day is done.
And if you take my hand my son
All will be well when the day is done.
Day is done, Day is done
Day is done, Day is done

Do you ask why I’m sighing, my son?
You shall inherit what mankind has done.
In a world filled with sorrow and woe
If you ask me why this is so, I really don’t know.

(Refrain)

Tell me why you’re smiling my son
Is there a secret you can tell everyone?
Do you know more than men that are wise?
Can you see what we all must disguise
through your loving eyes?

(Refrain)
