Sunset

soft tangerine sight
prelude to twilight~
sunset’s passing grace
of her gentle gaze,
like the final glance
of a brief romance

Oh, the poetic beauty that flows from your gifted pen takes my breath away, JCB. The splendor of sunset fades too fast, but not the impact of your bittersweet verse. Congratulations for your wonderful win, dear poetess. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
