Jana-Alisha O’Dell

It’s always been you.

The quiet evening beckons birds home
As the sun begins to set,
a cool wind overtakes.

Night is ready to set in,
Tuck in,
Tonight’s sunset is quite the show.
Light dances on the horizon

Sweeping hues of a color palette of fire ablaze.
Such glory to witness,
what a marvel.

I will sit and watch you in the distance
I have a box office seat to the endless skies.
I witness the day closing on,

Sitting on my favorite chair,
on my porch, nestling a hot cup of cocoa,
I tend to get lost in your beauty.

Am I your favorite?
Do I cross your mind?
Am I the reason behind that smile?
Am I the only one?
