Magnolia Sunset

There's a certain beauty to the skyline On the edge of this Texas town Conjuring up the days last events As the sun is sinking down The day wrestles with the memories Drawing them closely to an end A sweetness that holds the fragrance Of this beautiful Magnolia sunset As the brushstroke of truth sweeps pinks and blues In a mix between silver lined clouds So much beauty to behold Could make any sky cry out loud Painting with perfection in pastel God saves what colors are left To use again the next evening For another beautiful Magnolia sunset Had a friend on Facebook post pictures of Magnolia Texas's sunset. Loved the view and title so much that I had to write a poem. Thank you Catherine Eaves!

You made me want to fill my brushes with the soft pastels you mention. Wonderful images of sunset, Mike. We really do find inspiration everywhere, if we keep our eyes open.
