cloudy streaks on a...

Highlighting converging differences.
Out of chaos structure seemingly takes form,
Utilizing rays of a setting sun.
Etched upon the fringes of night and day,
Trees...

Sunset Splash
The sun sets in muted gold glow,
Shadows darkle the sky's blue brow,
Salmon clouds spread the sparkle slow,
As the orange orb's hiding now;

Swarovski SunsetWhen the first glimpse
of silver crescent
sprinkles citrine dust,
sparkling pink brooks

emerald green forests.

A feeling of relief comes over me
As the worries of the day depart...

Flying in charmed wonder;
Famed since glad childish days
Fast moving, slow blinking,
Fanatic of cream moon.

The Setting Sun
Sitting silently and dreaming,
while the fading day is teeming
with emotions softly streaming,
as we face the setting sun.
Saffron skies as day is ending;
into twilight, night is blending;
twinkling stars above are pending,

Sunset Song
In the dwindling day at the edge of twilight
the halcyon horizon blushes in delicate delight,
as the sunset colors spin the astral strands thin
in the formless fleet of cloud turning to violin.
After the sky-scan it’s...
