Lost Sunsets

Lost
colors
of a vague 
sunset, unfolds
stars that paint sanguine
dreamscapes from pale 
plum verses 
of blurred
past

A new color born from the breath of Love, off spectrum, rich and ruddy through the echoes of a longing heartbeat, a hue that must be tasted to be seen...J.A.B.

Saw this on selected poems. I love how rich and vivid the wordage is while sustaining through the end, every word carefully chosen for this delicate little ornament of a poem. A delightful read, like a tiny delicious appetizer.

Truly an exceptionally conceptional imagery cast by this gem of a short poem. This really got my attention. As we used to go to the hills to pick plums when a kid. """ dreamscapes from pale plum verses of blurred past"" God bless you.
