Sunset Inspiration (for robert)
_________________________________


in the twilight-
colors.
as I learn about you
twilight colors become
you

your thoughts, feelings
inspire palest sweet pastels
awash in reflected color
touched by the waning sun

and now
your voice
delightful in twilight memory
hints of strength
and confident
in the last deep pure color
unique tonight
and forever

and should I ever
see your face
touch you
it will bring again
this beautiful tinted twilight

and the day's last
vivid streaking streams
with which the day
proclaims
its sweet surrender
and mine

Constance~
This is lovely.
If Robert enjoyed the imagery of your sunset as much as I did ...
you just made two people smile~

Softly pleasant...  Twilight's my favorite time of day, so I appreciate the colors depicted and thoughts elicited.

Mark, thanks for seeing it. I grew up in AZ. where the sunsets are consistantly gorgeous,(I learned that this is so because of all the tiny sand particles in the air), but that's just not romantic is it?

Cpat-glad you liked it, and yup.wink.
