Sherbet Skies ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ Pink cotton candy streaks divine sherbet sky, While blueberry sorbets go swirling on high. Frosty orange creams add neon glow to the scene, As sun sets in the tropics, in a blaze of tangerine. “We are borne of star dust, and to the stars we shall one day return.” ~ Linda L. Dowd [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-21-2006 03:52 PM).] |

Linda...I should fuss at you, because you made me hungry for sweets and ice cream and I can't have any. Loved the poem and picture...Paul |

Very beautiful Linda... You know, this reminded me of the sunset I watched last night, right here in southern Ontario. It was so full of all the colours you mention. Hugs for this lovely. ~Autumn, the year's last, loveliest smile~ |

Oh my gosh! Who would thunk I'd ever want a bite of a sunset? You are right, though, angel-spun sherbets are good for you, not a gram of fat in sight...thank you for feeding my spirit, Angel! |
