Another

Photo of the sun setting behind a tree with a jet’s white trail visible in the sky.

As the sun retires,
a shooting star emerges—
another spring day.

Eye-opening

photo of the sunset with the silhouette of a jacaranda tree in the foreground, as seen through the slats of Venetian blinds

We’re one with nature:
superb summertime sunsets,
through Venetian blinds.

Warmth

Close up photo of a dead rose with the sun setting in the background.

A rose past its prime,
having shed vibrant petals,
seeks warmth in the sun.

Flight

Photo of the sunset on a bed of clouds in the horizon, as seen from a plane.

Flying at sunset
I sleep amongst the heavens—
a pillow of clouds.

Fading

photo of the sun setting behind suburban houses, the sky engulfed in a pinkish orange shade

At the end of day,
lingering shards of sunlight;
shades on a palette.
