Still waters smile sunset bliss

Woodland eyes see pure delight
Borning stars enchant wane light
Twilight blows burnished kisses

Ahh...Thank you so much my friend. There is a moment just before the sun sets when the light is magical and casts a spell on the world! I love this moment and wanted to capture it in words. This "elemental" form seemed to be a perfect format. Here's to burnished sunsets! Hugs :D
