Sunset Called To Her

An orange-streaked sunset
  called to her
in swirling mists
  of sapphire fleur-de-lis

She followed its path
  in hypnotic trance
A pink sherbet blouse
  atop flared pastel pants

As the fire dipped toward the ocean
  her heart swelled with emotion
A graceful dive to waters deep
  treasured memories to keep

You know, you sensed it correctly, Kim. I definitely am in an upbeat mood right now. Several reasons for it, a tad personal... Bottom line: Sunny disposition. :)

Oh so pretty a picture you've painted. It's as though you've cast a spell on us from the first words. That opening stanza is enchanting and pulls us in. Enjoyed this word wizardry :)
