Sharing a sunset from days gone by taken from my deck right before the sun disappeared beyond the horizon. It is so inspiring to watch a sunset. It only lasts a few moments but those moments are magical, peaceful and relaxing.
Participating in the Silhouette Saturday challenge with this photo.

Thanks to Albert, he has introduced us to Oriah, the Mountain Dreamer poet. She is incredible. Here is only a portion of what I read earlier today…
…Tell me how you crumble when you hit the wall, the place you cannot go beyond by the strength of your own will. What carries you to the other side of that wall, to the fragile beauty of your own humanness? ~ Oriah

Yes, I like poetry but not much time for that, and sometimes write my own….love the sunset photo
beautiful sunset picture carol. I would love to read more poetry, as well as produce it
Thank you so much Thomas. Each one is unique and magical.
I have written a little but nothing major.
Very beautiful picture of sunset.
Nice photo!! Lovely sunset!
Just to be honest, I’m not much into poetry …
most of the times, I don’t get them 😕
Thanks, I always enjoy the magic in the sky.
If Albert recommended her I know she must be good, and I can tell from your little snippet. 🙂 Love the sunset!
Yes, he wrote a longer snippet in his recent post and drew me in. Thanks Kim.
Poetry is a dream that can be shared with others, or kept to ourselves and shared only when we are alone.
You are right, that is what makes it so captivating.
Very nice poem… How I wish I could read the whole poem.
Here is a link to the entire poem. Thanks!

I have my good poetry and I ,ll share it soon
That is great, looking forward to it.
A stunning sunset which is no surprise from Carol. The poetic words are no doubt captivating. Just 2 lines reel you in wanting more. Hmm
Thank you Bradley, always a pleasure to see you. Oriah has me captivated as well.
Another amazing sunset, so beautiful!
Thank you, they are magical.
I definitely agree with that! 🙂
Have a great weekend!
Hopefully you will too!
even for Narnia, that’s a great sunset
Funny thing. When I typed the title, I thought about adding Narnia but I decided against it.
that may be the most Narnian sunset ever. when are they gonna release a new Narnia film, anyway?
Thank you! I don’t know but the last one was 9 years ago… it is time.
Silver Chair was my favorite Narnia book, they’re messing with me!
Beautiful sunset. I love reading poetry and I do not have talent for writing.
Thanks, I love watching the sunset as you know.
To be honest, I do not know anything about poetry, dear Carol
That is ok dear friend. We all have things we enjoy.
I philosophy and poetry are for me a pure taboo theme …. they were never interested in me and I did not need them in my life … and still do not interest me … I’m not exactly the smartest
I understand, but there are other things in life you enjoy. Life is about a lot of things, not everybody likes everything as you know.
That’s why we are so different and I think that’s the way it is …. thanks for understanding, dear Carol
You are very welcome, I will always try to understand. 🙂 Have a great rest of the day!
Oftentimes, great things don’t last long. That is probably the reason why the camera was invented. To capture great moments. What a beautiful sunset!
That is true, and another reason to save each moment in life. Thanks!
And I am very thankful for the camera.
This is a beautiful sunset that sings billions of beautiful and deep lyrics.
Thank you for your appreciation, Carol.
My vocabulary, at the present, does not go as deep as I would like to be able to describe the feelings felt while witnessing the sunsets Albert. You are always welcome.
So this is part of “It’s hard to say something we feel, we, see or we experience”… Hehehe…
Yes indeed you are correct.
Impressive sunset! Albert made me look for details about Oriah. I like how she writes. ?
Thanks. I also went right to researching after reading his post.
Yes, pretty nice post…
Thanks, good to see you.
