DARK HORIZON SUNSET

Thoughts in her head
Like dark sky of lead
Charcoal gray clouds swirling above
Lumpy – lost – lacking love

Feathered streaks all around
In different colors abound
Like in the Horizon ahead
Some purple, pink and others blood red

So many emotions to sort through
Not letting the darkness rule
Looking to grasp the lighter light
And leave behind the dark night

Knowing that daylight will come
And with it the rising morning sun
His wings will cover her all night
Protecting her til morning and his Son’s light

About this poem:
Saw the most beautiful sunset the other night. The sky was all dark except for a small band across the horizon was white with streaks of pink, lavender, gold and blotches of blood red.

Thanks Abby! I looked at that sky that night and compared it with the mixed up feelings I have inside.

If there is a moment I enjoy if outdoors and get a glimpse of it; is twilight. Those wonderful changing colors are magnificent.
Your writing of dawn was so beautiful, I enjoyed it very much. teddybear

Thank you South Miami. My favorite nature moments are in the summer time in the sun with birds singing, butterfly and hummingbirds flying around beautiful flowers. My emotions have been all over the place lately the same as the swirling dark clouds. I was comparing my emotions with the dusk/darkness of the sunset at night. Thanks for compliment.

Hi Christian! Yes - God is the greatest painter of all time. No one can even come close to his pictures or colors either by painting or by words. Thanks for stopping in and reading.
