The crimson sun delicately snuck behind the remainder of the day's clouds Almost drawing them down as it sank vibrantly over the horizon In its wake it left a hue of deep pink highlighting the dark blue of the distant mountain range and the deep greens of the valley in the forefront In a mystical magical way it was enchanting and me in my grubby work clothes was transported from my despairing workplace to a beautiful place where I am constantly reminded what beauty abounds ..........that was all I needed to end my day..........

About this poem:
Looking west after locking up at work .................along the dirt road and further .........very much further ........
I will have to write down the sunset times so I can see a sunset, they are really nice. I have some photos from the 80's of about four I took pictures of.
Hey MC...........Sunsets and sunrises mate all good for the soul..........a simple way to alleviate the stresses of a sometimes monotonous lifestyle ..............Thanks for stopping by .....Regards NU

Hi, NU. Nice write. I'm not a Kathy lol, (although that should be obvious). For me watching sunsets, (and sunrises) really makes me wonder what it's all about.
Hi, Nuwahri61, ...transported from my despairing workplace to a beautiful place... Those who have such places are among the lucky ones! Thanks for sharing yours with us through your wonderful write!
Hi Joy .........its been way too long between drinks as they say .........always a pleasure to receive your analytical reviews and humbled by your warm comments .........cheers mate .........Regards NU
You must have been looking at this my love! I took this while picking up mangoes across from the mill near your workplace when mangoes was still a novelty to me. The sunsets here in Mackay are ones of the most beautiful I've seen and I've seen sunrises/sunsets in all four corners of our world. I cherish the times you use to take me out chasing sunsets and those times we use to watch the sun rises up from across the waters while walking by the beach! I will never tire admiring for it often takes my breath away...
Thank you my darling wife ...............they are quite amazing aren't they ...........very little pollution and clear sky's ........how fortunate we are to be where we are ........Thanks babe

You have a creative way of writing poetry, at least at this poem, in a sentence form. It’s like prose without punctuation or Capital letters. Very unique.
Thanks Guitarpoet .........interesting you should say that as this is not my usual way of writing ........I just wanted to do something different without the rhyme ........appreciate your comments and stopping by .....Regards NU
