| Sunset Gulf Shores, Alabama |
One lone leaf glitters eerily in the chill.
The sky looks gorgeous from my windowsill.
The vastness of the hill country in a leaf
Dances beyond the span of all belief,
The splendor of its memory is brief.
You may not want to hear it when I say
The Earth is in the twilight of its day.
The depth of it is drinking us away.
A cloud is a distant parchment in the sky.
Today's boat is a shadow sailing by.
Minutes will never catch it, though they try.
I wish it could be every sunset, Friend,
That fey instant before all colors blend,
Dusk held at the crescendo of its end.
The title poem of my book, Ever Sunset, Skylark Publications, India
Dances beyond the span of all belief,
The splendor of its memory is brief.

| Sunset Glencoe, Alabama |
The Earth is in the twilight of its day.
The depth of it is drinking us away.

| Sunset, Mexico Beach, Florida |
Today's boat is a shadow sailing by.
Minutes will never catch it, though they try.

| Apollo Beach Florida |
That fey instant before all colors blend,
Dusk held at the crescendo of its end.
