Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

I Look To the Skies

I adore observing a stunning sunset,
when summer is drifting towards fall.
Ruby red tinged clouds I can’t forget  -
they are the most glorious sight of all!

Twilight’s arrived, to another day I must bid adieu
as scarlet skies transform to an inky velvety blue.

Alexis Y. October 4, 2019 at 6:34 PM Hi Jan, I share your sentiment. There's nothing like viewing a beautiful sunset. Congratulations on your winning write:-) Alexis

Carolyn Devonshire October 2, 2019 at 1:20 PM It seems like a gift from heaven when we see a beautiful sunset. Beautiful imagery, Jan. We see many red sunsets here in Florida, but sometimes we see red sunrises and they are supposed to indicate bad weather is on the way. Congratulations on your win! Hugs, Carolyn

David Mchattie October 1, 2019 at 8:42 PM Lovely imagery my friend. It snowed here yesterday so you're poem may be as close as I come to 'fall.' Have a good day.

Rico Leffanta September 27, 2019 at 7:29 PM Family lore tells that when I was two-years old, I "ran away from home" because the sun set and I followed it because I loved its warmth and light.
