Twilight by the Bay As twilight spreads across the sky, the saffron sun sinks in the sea while bidding day its final plea. The calmness of the night is nigh. A stillness settles o’er the bay, and harbor lights will soon display as twilight spreads across the sky. October 6, 2019

So beautiful John I especially enjoyed saffron sun sinks in the sea, great alliteration, but done so discretely it enhances the write not detracting as it often does. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful in every way. Your thoughts take me there in the moment. "the saffron sun sinks in the sea" Such a wonderful image to caress, at the end of the day, as tenderness touches the heart. I shall place this in my favorites. You have created a Masterpiece, my dear friend. :) Brandy
