Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
The artistic sun is always changing,
rearranging colorful paints on its pallet
splashing brilliant shades across the canvas sky
with each rise and set, no two ever the same
Some mornings dawn overcast and dreary
with grey clouds cloaking promising hues
while others awaken with a smile, cheery
in vivid shades of yellow and cerulean blue
In the twilight hours when day is almost done
the copper orb sinks low on the welcoming horizon,
making one last effort to leave the world inspired
in shades of violet, wood thrush gold, and orange
before the next vibrant dayspring arises

This line stands out: “grey clouds cloaking promising hues.” That’s right; at sunset, all those clouds become the ground for extra beauty. Speaking of beauty, I love that picture you chose! ❤

So many vivid colors… I have mostly seen grey recently…but the memory of those hues will stay.

You are right, Linda. Each sunrise and sunset is fleeting, and each is somehow different and beautiful in its own way. Thank you!

There is nothing to rival sunset and sunrise, and no two are alike. We know they’ll always be there, but we don’t know what palette they’ll choose. Beautiful photo. and lovely write.

So sorry to hear this. Take it easy. Don’t let anything stress you. (I know. I know. Easier said than done.). But we have to learn to take a breahe and slow down.
