Image result for sunset by the bay

The veil of sunset bares her afterglow In marmalade prism along the coast, Revealing her ever- breathless warmth And my naked glance lingers, as she, In thinning haze, dips…a final adieu While I gently moan to catch her last splendour. Contest: Skat's 8/7/2015 by nette onclaud

The eloquence of your stirring poem builds up into some feel of grandeur and solemnity. And the final impeccable line speaks so much to me!The beauty of a sunset makes one misty-eyed all the time!

the 'naked glance' brings to mind the almost voyeuristic mindset of the observer. Beautifully constructed - a tour-de-force. ;)

Lovely poem, lovely image. No two sunsets are ever the same and so can be absorbingly enjoyed again and again and again. Kind regards, Ian
