Radiant Sunset

The fiery sun was a radiant circle
in the majestic sky.
As it started to dip
beneath the watermark,
an amber blush decorated
the evening sea.
Golden hues 
started dancing on the ocean surface 
turning the water into 
a sparkling mirror.
An illuminated path 
of tinted red and orange streaks
oscillated across the shades 
of azure water.
Rhythmic foamy waves 
were caressing and kissing the shoreline constantly.
Crisp sounds of the rustling palm trees
and loud squawking of Seagulls
added amusement to 
the ocean’s own symphony. 
Flocks of pelicans 
were heading back home
in V-formations.
With the salty ocean breezes, 
the warmth of the blazing spectacular canvas brought
immense gratitude.

I had the delight of watching a real sunset . The description of the blushing water of the ocean as the Sun plunged into her depths is so exhilarating. Lovely poem Smita. Thanks for your visit to my page.
