The Sky

The sky dims with bittersweet, tangerine, clementine and peach.
Strokes intricate and broad, intimate and inclement brushed on.
As creative as DNA, each day a corpus canvas.

Dear Kim, I am enthralled with your spectacular imagery and word pairings. Each line sings with your artistry. I adored the vibrant colors of sunset, the pairing of "intimate and inclement" and your potent, creative last line! Exquisite poetry seasoned just right with a subtle sprinkling of alliterations. Warmest wishes dear poet.. ~Susan

Hi Kim, I enjoyed reading your colourful description of the Sky, must admit it's the first time I've heard of a Sijo poem.
