     Table Mountain

The tentative sunset
hangs for but a moment
on table mountain…
across the slice of restless
    sea,
dancing with the mists
of gathering twilight,
and the flashing-sorrows
    in her eyes.

I wonder if you've been there and seen for yourself because you describe the scene so very, very, well and as I could never do.  My hat off to a true poet and thank you!  I will look with different eyes when I am there in July and try to get to the "heart" of the mountain and all that hangs on her.
