Chasing the Horizon

Mesmerized by the fiery sky,

They followed the horizon.

Straight down the quiet road,

Out to where there are only barns and cornfields.

As the glowing ball kisses the edge of the earth,

They drive to where wind turbines sprout from the ground and stand tall like soldiers.

Endlessly following the sunset until it dips below their vision,

Setting the world into a slumber.

And after coming so far,

They turn back towards home,

As night falls upon the town.
