winter sunset

the winter sunset
    is so beautiful
with a rosy pink band
like a ribbon    streaking
a lovely band of color 
     across the sky 
beyond the frosty trees
       below  a stain  a vein 
of yellow gold
with sprinkles of purple
& navy 
variegated   mottled sublime
swirling
     with winter white 
smears blurring & streaking
              uninterrupted
for a moment
      visible &  then
slipping   falling
& fading
