Such an exquisitely vivid and evocative metaphor dear Sara. Your use of creative terms like "cornflower skies" and "cinnamon clouds" to describe how beautiful and moving the sunset is astonishing. Have a wonderful weekend and a peaceful evening

what an amazing monoku and I love the way you've formatted it rather than being on one line, it's far more dramatic this way:-) your poetry is exceptional Sara, a fave for me:-) hugs Jan xx

awww, thank you, Jan, for your visit and for your comments about my 'vertical' Monoku. I agree...it is more dramatic...the singular line is boring to me. Hey, and thanks for the fave. I'm humbly grateful, Sara
