The photo you chose is perfect; it leads right into your poetic interpretation of its beauty, Sara. Your words paint a picture of its passing, its majestic beauty, and the awe we're left with as with gaze at its passing. Kudos to you, for such a masterful poem. Love and Admiration, Bill

"Pastel-enameled sky" Oh my, how breathtaking!!! I certainly am in search of exact adjectives to be able to describe the beauty of this haiku.. Ah, as everything about sunrise/sunset, colours especially pastel ones intrigue my heart to the core.. And this one just fascinated my acrylic hued soul.. Wow. . The depth and vividness of this haiku has really made me go wow.. Love your writes always, dear Sara, this is absolutely profound! :)

Thank you, Hiya, for your profound comments. You have a unique way with words and weaving them together so beautifully not only with your poetry but with your comments. Yes, it's hard to capture the essence of something as beautiful as a sunrise or a sunset. I'm in awe each time I see one. I appreciate you and have a pleasant day, Sara

Ahh i am a sunset lover, but this is beyond just appreciating the sunrise, this is deep. And i love how you’ve written this. “ a pastel enameled sky” thats so unqiue and creative , i love how you’ve painted imagery in such a moving manner as always. You I’ve decided is the queen of haikus, every haiku you weave is beyond profound with so much depth, leaving an everlasting poetic impression

thank you for your wonderful comments and for dubbing me the 'queen of haikus.' I never imagined myself queen of anything. I find this moniker uplifting. Thanks so much for appreciating my words and my imagery. You're delightful! Enjoy your day, Sara
