Love ItLove It

The falling sun

As if a rock

piecing the surface of a pond

to sink.

twirling as though a 

leaf in the wind

ejecting a small

cloud of mud

as it

settles

to the bottom of the pond.

as circles of water

spread outward

trying to get away from the hole

created by the falling rock

and the

sun

knocked from the very sky

falls to the ground

and rolling around

we only see

the tiny cloud

of dust

from where it hit the ground.

  1. Ever watch the falling sun?
    When it is about to say goodnight
    To give way for the moon to rise
    It is like the king paving the way
    For the queen to shine
    Or like an angel hurrying home
    Trying to catch up
    The closing gate of heaven above ?

    ??? At least that is how Pixies see the falling sun. Wonderful poetry, Doc. Really shows that sentimental side of you. Love it ??

      • I love watching the sun – – – and watching it at sunset always feels to me like a coming home. I am a skywatcher Doc. In the morning, when I wake up, I look up above and say thanks. At night before I sleep, I do the same. The bedroom has an open area outside (converted by the witches to an improvised garden) that makes it easy for me to do it. It looks out to the sea too.
