Awe Inspiring

My awe inspiring moments of today
The beauty of a sunset changing colors
There were sand colored clouds against 
The bluest of blue skies

Then these clouds turned to black
It seemed in almost seconds
Then further South the same sun
Was casting red onto the horizon

I ask myself how can this be
All these are horizons
All the same sun
All the same sky

This beauty was just for me
I don't get to see sunsets
From where I live very much
Without going to a good bit of trouble

This awed me today
Moments just for me
Thank you God for the beauty
For a day with a sunset with no rain

Beauty awe inspiring poetry Sara. When beauty presents itself in your pathway, in abundance as it seems to in your case Sara, perfection is not far away. For seeing the beauty in everything, as you do in abundance, is a prelude to Love's perfection. Good journey Sara, in Love's pathway. Sincere, Lovfe, Moses
