Teal blue skies dappled with white polka dots with hints of a sanguine sun shining through. And calm waters mirror the polka dots that vanish as time erases a few. Dusk impatiently awaits in the wings listening to competing crickets chirp. And as darkness descends a warbler sings while frogs solicit mates with a burp. Shifting shadows and silhouettes converge as liquid ebony pools drip by drip. And Twilight and dusk entangle and merge as the last traces of day start to slip. Nature's crescendo, polka dots and all saying so long summer; and hello fall. (Sonnet) Jan. 21, 2019 Polka Dots Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh

What a beautiful sonnet with many vivid images to describe sunset ass the seasons pass from summer to fall. Best wishes in the Polka Dot contest, Edward. The entries seem to be a mix of serious and humorous poems; I'm enjoying reading all of them.
