Sunset

Along the westward horizon

the ambered light

drips along earth’s curve

like honey driven

from the hive

by a multitude of bees

golden nourishment

for a barren sky

    I like that part. It has really motion in it and paints a vivid picture.

    Wonderful, so descriptive. Love the way you’ve curved the line structure too, very creative. Adds to the poem in a visual way. Well done!

    This poem is good enough to eat!
    I loves honey.
    Seriously tho, Pamela, this is so easy to picture in my mind’s eye and such a sense of serenity, too. Good job!
