A crimson sky breaks the distant shore
“A crimson sky breaks the distant shore”
This kaleidoscope of colours I just adore
I love to stroll by the ever changing sea
At peace with the world, I feel so carefree
The sky’s ablaze with scarlet and gold
It’s such a glorious sight to behold
I’ll stay until the sun sinks down low
A cool breeze blows so it’s time...

In our sunset yearsWhen we’re at peace, God’s light engulfs our chest,
on top of our head, He places His hand,
this epiphany dawning on demand,
divine gifts of grace, for which we feel blessed.
Employing free will, we ask thoughts to rest,
that drenched in bliss mists, soul may understand,
God’s omnipresence as we make our stand,
in our heart’s cave, where light of...

CRIMSON SKYPrompt :"A crimson sky breaks the distant shore"

CRIMSON SKY
A crimson Sky breaks the distant shore
stargates opened veils upon veils
portals portending lyrical lemon drops
or so it seemed
since senses were lost
in open labyrinth lots
angels poured purple pearls
lacing comely camomile into timeless space
I heard old lions roar below...

What Makes Me Smile
Seeing the beauty of the morning sunrise,
then seeing the colorful sunset at the end of my day.
Making someone laugh when I go shopping,
seeing their face go from dull to lighting up.
Nothing is better than a new puppy,
all soft and furry with a kiss from a tiny tongue.
A child's face in wonder,
giving them a double ice...

SUNSET IN LOVEGlows the sunset...
soft hues in silhouette
kiss two hearts lost in the day—
hands in quiet hold,
sharing warmth untold,
eyes speak what words cannot say.
Fall the dusk-lit hours,
sweet as closing flowers,
wrapped in stars just rising above—
every sigh and smile
lingers love awhile,
drawn close by time… it’s love.
Note: This is a sequel to "Sunrise In Love" by a dear poetic...

A Crimson Sky Breaks the Distant Shore
I squinted while gazing into the western skies
my attention drawn to banks where willows wept.
Twilight, a melange of magical moments in my eyes,
usually interludes when twilight colors were windswept
just before the juncture where daylight slowly faded
and the reign between sun and moon were traded.
But tonight, "a crimson sky breaks the distant shore."
Appearing low across...

Summer Sunset's Tints Of Pink And BlueThis evening's sunset
Paints sky into pink and blue
As the summer's warmth
Surrounds this body you love
As I am thinking of you....

Vestige in BlueBefore the light could find my frame,
A breath of blue became the air.
I waited—not for hope or name—
But for a silence I could bear.
The self withdrew, then disappeared,
No shelter left for soul to keep.
All colors fell, as time grew smeared;
Just blue remained—too vast, too deep.
What burned was not a mortal flame,
But thought encased in frost...

Moment's Masterpiece
The sky, a sudden canvas,
brushed with hues that have no names.
Not quite orange, not fully rose,
but a melting, incandescent blend,
as if a thousand unspoken wishes
bled into the clouds.
Ephemeral.
Here for a heartbeat, a drawn breath,
then subtly shifting, surrendering
to the slow, inevitable descent.
We pause, caught in its fiery gaze,
a primal awe stirring within.
This daily miracle, so casually...

The SkyI fall in love with the sky time after time again.
Perhaps that is how I learned to love so hard,
To love so much,
And never expect anything in return.
I fell in love first with something ever changing;
Nothing can disappoint me after that....

Sunrise and Sunset RoutinesBreaking up the day into coffee and cabernet,
energy and relaxation, sunrise and sunset routines.
—by poet
Sunrise coffee, percolating,
poured into four seasons.
As soon as the mug’s drained,
brush pearly teeth, slide frothy floss,
Touch the sky where the sun should be;
the reach of xanthous rays.
Leftover steam from coffee-up -
blow on the sky; blue hue.
Cabernet in late afternoon;
cerise-cheers at sunset.
Dress...
