"As the setting sun pours colors on the firmament and the evening dresses up in shades of amber, let hearts sing of the beauty of nature and praise the master craftsman who designs everything" ~ By Poet
On a beautiful evening, sat by the side of a silent lake. On staring into its still, see- through waters, I saw, Tiny thick lipped gourami, swimming back and forth Flashing their silvery scales in synchronized swings. Swallows were flying to their neat laid nocturnal nests. In the soothing silence, set free of all strife and stress, I forgot myself. The sun had soundlessly set in the west. Copper clouds in chameleon sky were cloaked in cobalt grey.

Dearest Valsa, what a picture of serene beauty you paint for us! I love the line "I forgot myself!" You remind all of us how easy it is to forget ourselves as we are wrapped in the serenity of twilight sitting by the water! A beautiful experience indeed! Congratulations on your win, dear friend. Blessings of serenity to you!

I love how your poem evokes a strong sense of being present in the moment, fully immersed in the natural world. It’s a reminder of the peace that can be found in the simplicity of nature and the quiet moments that allow us to reconnect with ourselves. Loved the reflective nature of your poem and soothing words...

Your colorful work is awesome. Yes, God is the Master Craftsman. I believe He gives such beauty in the sky and on the earth for us to praise Him by writing, singing, speaking, and painting of His wonderful beauty. Sara K
