Sunsets Are Painted By God, and So


I stopped my car on the highway,
To watch the soft fading sun falling;
The end of another azure sky blue day.
A golden sunset is like a beautiful painting,
I knew in that moment that my God was creating;
His paint brush swirling to send gold and yellow drifting.

I like this, BW. Not only for the words and thought, but also for the way it shapes on the page. You night want to toy with it sometime by adding to it, duplicating the shape in reverse below.

This is a lovely work BW. the sunset is a wonder to behold but I think that your God also created a poetess that could capture the beauty. Then share her beautiful painting with us. Thank you Love Shane xxx
