Sunrise, Sunset



Sunset Gulf Shores, Alabama
 Sun crackles in the blue reserved hill.
One lone leaf glitters eerily of chill.
The sky looks grosgrain from my window sill.
Sunset Marathon, Florida
The vastness of hill country in a leaf
Dances beyond the span of all belief,
The splendor of its memory is brief.
Sunset Glencoe, Alabama
You may not want to hear it when I say
That earth is in the twilight of its day.
The depth of it is drinking us away.
Sunset Mexico Beach, Florida
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.
Apollo Beach Florida
I wish it could be every sunset, Friend,
That fey instant before all colors blend,
Dusk held at the crescendo of its end.
Sunrise in an Airplane near Baltimore MD
The title poem of my book, Ever Sunset, Skylark Publications, India
