Inspired by a Sunset ~POEM

Thanks to the encouragement and inspiration of member Albert Herdianto Widjojo I have finally completed one of my many poems. After a tragedy in my life I always turn to writing and journaling. But it seems I never complete any of the poems. After reading so many posted here, especially those of Albert’s, he has encouraged me to complete one, and so here goes. It is not a poem that rhymes, these are my feelings, raw feelings. Also sharing sunset photos taken from my deck.  This is how I feel when I witness a sunset…

Sunset draws me near

Each day I yearn for the beauty

And I am never disenchanted

Another presence is felt now

Could it be you… yes there you are

Sunset draws me near

What sentiments will transcend tomorrow

With an mind open I anxiously await

For the next sunset to complete my mind

Sunset draws me near

Memories, smiles, happiness, love

Thank you sunset for all you give
…for the hope
…for the joy
…for the peace
…for the honor to feel your arrival

Sunset draws me near

And I quietly anticipate your next presentation
