A beautiful African Sunset

'A beautiful African Sunset
  I stood watching at Dusk
Thousands of Flamingos going home
  Crossing the Shadows of the evening Sun
Beautiful  scenic view
  Their sounds echoing thru the evening Sky
Shades of Pink and Black Birds
  Squealing away as if warning that Darkness prevails
Mesmerising  Sunset
  Peace and Tranquillity  follows as the Sun goes down
I stand watching until all is so quiet
  Not even the chirping  of the Crickets
In a distance l hear a Hyena laughing
  A sudden roar of a Lion
Scaring my wits
  I would  better sit in my Land Rover or else am prey
Looming  darkness
  Whispers of Trees l hear...
My Flash lights leading the way along the road
   Eyes shining in the dark like Moon beams
Animals gazing as l drive along
  It's getting too late
