Summer Nights

As the sun goes down
   
  the sky is brightly painted

     in violet hues

with splashes of pink and mauve

   nature's painting in the sky.

I love beautiful sunsets--and sunrises. I have spent many years photographing them. A poetic and expressive Tanka. Warm regards, Robert.

Good one..Enjoyed the descriptive work..Thanks for commenting on my blog..A Low Country Boil is a meal in a pot..It is usually new potatoes, corn on the cob, shrimp, different kinds of sausage(your choice) and maybe some other kind of fish or seafood..All cooked in the same pot starting by putting in the ingredients in order of how long it will take them to cook..Have fun looking up recipes and writing a Epulaeryu..Sara
