Exquisitely beautiful imagery depicted in this first class haiku my friend. I've watch the sun as sunset deep into the ocean and could almost hear the sizzle as it slowly sank out of sight. Your poem reminds me of that experience. A fav.. God bless..

Your kind accolades make me smile, Robert. What a great thought about the sun's heat sizzling as it sinks into the sea. Love it!
