Sunset
Feathers on high
Streaks of orange light
Fill the western sky before me
I gasp
Cinquain

Streaks of orange light

Poppy
Draped in crepe
Orange hued petals
Alive with fragility
Wind dances

Celebrating late
National Creamsicle Day
Creamsicle sunset
Haiku
Tonite we had the most beautiful sunset in different shades and layers of orange, peach and cream colors. The camera on my phone just didn’t capture the colors exactly as I saw them because as I looked at it I thought of a Creamsicle which I have always loved to eat!
A quick Google search told me that National Creamsicle Day was on August 14th which was two days ago, but the sky was cloudy then and there wasn’t a sunset, so I guess God decided to celebrate it late and gave us this creamsicle sky tonight! 😊


Autumn arrived yesterday all aglow
Dressed in red, orange, brown and yellow
A pallet of color she held in her hand
and she used it to change the scape of my land.
A bounty of fruit she left in her wake
the abundance of which I could freely take
Color so vibrant brought my senses alive
Autumn! I am so glad you chose to arrive!
