A RAINBOW SCARF
(An Ode To Sunsets)
Though we're into the twilight zone;
The sunset has not yet gone;
It lingers long in the horizon,
Waiting for us to come along.
As the ambient light spreads its glow,
A rainbow scarf appears out of the blue.
It decks the sky in twirling motion;
A gymnast's dream to hold in possession:
A pathos of passion, a prism of triumph.
With sunsets' own capricious power,
No layman can ever fathom.
This moment I'll long to remember.

"Beautiful poem with a spectacular
add-on photo of the colorful horizon!" - Susan Dancel Isip š¤©
Though we're into a twilight zone;
The sunset hasn't gone down yet;
It lingers long on the horizon,
Waiting for us to come along.
Meanwhile, the sky can't stop
But spread its ethereal glow;
A scarf of love as in a rainbow
For us to remember
That God is in-charge there.
Our destiny He yet will map
In our hands one day He'll fold
As one soul according to His mould.
