What Is a Sunset

Is it a moment to feel the soul, wrapped in silent colors, or a universe where time and motion move slowly? Can such a beautiful realm end at the horizon, or carry us through dreams of tomorrow? Could we ever paint such a paradise to the eyes, in the dawn of our imagination as our thoughts wander? contest The Answer sponsor Skat A

Hi, I like your questions about the sunset. I am not as physiological as you. My take is simple. God is saying good night in all His glory. And I do like His good mornings with his flashing silver rays waving "Hi" You might like to read my "Eavesdropping on a Goodnight Kiss" ~~Darlene

wonderful, Frederic! I finally did mine too, just not posted it yet. You might want to read the rules again. I could be wrong, but didn't she say to do it in LESS than 7 lines? I remember thinking , "oh, I better keep to five or six." Just a heads up unless I read it wrong!!
