What the Sunset Said - An Original Poem

Start, Again

Sunset is a gentle master to all that are stricken
patiently, teaching us how to melt a bruise away

Watch how, with a silver whisk, that cracked egg
of a setting sun is majestically stirred, and put to rest.

Violent violet, pining pink, and yelling yellow
all agitated, then muted, their differences reconciled

Until all that remains is a faint tattoo of quiet hurt
pearlescent wisps of smoke from a sighing flame

that night stealthily smothers and hushes away…


I hope you enjoy these brief meditations Steemians and, if so, that you will consider upvoting and resteeming. Also, would love to hear from you.

Have a lovely Sunday _/|_
