Momentary Blushes

like a blast of fire erupting amidst smoky trails this horizon was momentarily aglow before darkness consumed the skies again nature blushed in small folds as if embarassed by her emotional display of the countless tears she's cried in winter's glum

Damn, this was gorgeous. I could see this and I could feel it as if I were there. Your relationship with nature and emotions is our gift because it shine in your poetry. I don't even know what else to say, this was beautiful.

Thank you so much Alexis... what a kind thing to say... this was the first rise I have seen even if momentary in months it seems...it's always cloudy or rainy as the sun is rising or setting, so we haven't gotten to enjoy much beauty... have a great weekend my friend... hugs
