This is a real beauty. If you had used lie instead of lay, it would be placed even higher! Love it, Frederick. Congrats

Oh wow this is such a gorgeous sijo with vivid imagery "salty air of twilight", "red and yellow colors lay soft on the sky's horizon" And that last line really conveys so much, about darkness being blanketed by the soft glow of healing moonlight.. Absolutely loved reading this.. Best of luck, if for the contest!
