Notes About The Poem

Date written: 01/17/2024

Gloaming Wonder

          burnt-orange clouds
                   converge
             over the horizon.

                    starlings
             in the thousands,
black against the gloaming sky....

                 ^|^ flying ^|^
      in dazzling synchronicity...
      what awe-inspiring view!

          comfortably sinking
             into nature's seat,
        I fully recline, watching...
