* Day Begins With sunrise, Casting shadows As it climbs upwards Into the clear blue sky, Everywhere now bathed in Bright glorious golden sunshine, Then at noon it reaches the zenith And then begins the descent to sunset. Written on 15th June 2022

The imagery and your descriptive words Tom creates in ones mind the scenes of a perfect Sunrise to Sunset. Your talent as a writer is very impressive my friend...

What goes up, must come down. The shape was fabulous, a well written Etheree, Tom. p.s. I've had a couple of problems with someone sending comments as me. The person has made a very negative comment on one of my poems also. Thanks for reporting it. If it was negative, it wasn't me. Have a good day my friend, Bill

From east to west our sun emerges and departs, you've captured it so eloquently... within a pyramid, displayed just on time to greet the summer solstice. Masterful Tom!

Is your pyramid responsible for the heatwave? If so, please redirect it to Russia! Well done! Aloha!

I enjoyed the pictures plus the Etheree to go along side of the poem. Days can be so beautiful in their changes as I am sure our lives are beautiful to God in our changes. Thanks for the visit to my page and the kind review of my work. Sara

An honest depiction of the earth in motion Tom, using the sun as our focal point, the pyramid effect is quite stark, and enhances the reader’s experience, A fine piece of sculpture indeed, cheers David
