Vermilion sunset Menagerie of animals roam foggy mountain side Unaware of vermilion sunset painting ocean tide Reflecting on aqua-blue where reddish hues infuse As twilight flickers on ripples that leisurely cruise. Ancestral dance-music echoes from the distant hills As mockingbirds mimic birdsongs from the foothills, While villagers frolic happily sipping luscious wine Enchanted amidst frangipani scent, feeling divine. As sun takes one last breath of drowning daylight Pellucid waters shine bright courting glorious sight.

A lovely painting with splendid shades and deft strokes ! Amazingly beautiful. This goes into my FAVE. Don't feel bad if I don't respond to your poems or comments for three or four days as I will be busy with guests at home.
