Color of Sky

   

In one hour

long streaks of orange

will embrace the red

which will embrace the blue

as the multicolored sky 

departs through the door of darkness

waving goodbye

and goodnight.

A lovely sunset you depict but the first four lines I could not help see the imagery of bush fires which scare us each and every summer.

Ah, I imagine that would. They might feel the same in California. Often people see what I don't.

Oooh, wish I'd written that! We've been staying on the Oregon coast for nearly a month, and have been witnesses to such sunsets. Beautiful ode to a beautiful sight, leading us to a very good night.

A kaleidoscopic end to the day....a painted scene that I seem to see most evenings when I depart for home after another long day. The melding of colours into darkness is a lovely sight to behold and you described the visual well here. 💛

You know this is perfectly the view I got from my top floor balcony..... And evening is the time I adore the most

[Relic]

You're lucky, all I saw was clouds all day. :( Thanks for the read.

funnily enough, we watched that very sky tonight in the cold
So beautiful

[Relic]

I wish I could have been there. Thanks.

Always strange watching the sun go down, it's as if we become part of a different species, the night people.
Some go for night some go for day. Colour is so important to humans, especially in well-being and mood.
I do like black though, but that might be because it calms me.

Thanks very much, Paul.
