Dusk

Dusk... Twilight comes creeping with pastel paints, on sky, its canvas. The graffiti artist. Nature's splashes of colour creating an abstract mural envied by the most famous artists. Dusk, the painter, nightly displays her art. As the setting sun sinks behind the lake the bright glow of a sinking fireball distracts the eye from pastel hues. As the sun seemingly sinks into the blue water the violet sky draws the eye back to colours, vivid. ...Dusk

You painted the picture so well with your pen, Francine. Capturing nature's beauty takes a lot of skill. Awesome work! I guess you could enter this one in the contest, but the other etheree has that "touch me" theme. This one touches my spirit though. Beautifully penned. Love, Carolyn
