Evening Sky

Blue, violet, and magenta masterpiece Brushed with mounds like white cotton Rainbows streaming down sunbeams Intertwining amongst pillows of light Drifting, spiraling downward Covering the earth in elegance Gracing many a mountains face Illuminating sand and stones Creating paintings upon the soul Copyright © 2009 Lena “Lolita” Townsend

This is an awesome picture. I have seen sunset like these in Negril, Jamaica. I did not think I could capture in words and wished always I was a painter ... you are the artist extraordinaire, and your canvas is my mind's eye. Love it.
