Fire in the sky
Radiance and hue
Red, yellow, pink and orange
On a pallet sky of blue
The midnight sky is falling
Dusk awaits the dawn
Clouds ignite with fury
As ember rays shine on
Casting flaming brilliance
Fields of cotton blaze
Burning lucent glare
Luminescent haze
Spherical majesty
Melting into earth
Orb of marvel beauty
Giving twilight new birth

Very nice, I really liked this, it is exactly what I was looking for. I like your imagery, the rhyme and flow were good too and you've got some great unique phrases in there: Clouds ignite with fury, Casting flaming brilliance, Melting into earth, to name but just a few. Thanks for entering and good luck! x

Wow
This is a truly amazing piece that evoked such deep imagery for me. You have a talent for recognizing the pieces of nature that stand out best to create an image. We have all seen this sunset when the sun is painted "on a pallet sky of blue". Thank you for creating this image again; you have masterful use of words and language in creating images and ideas. Thank you for inspiring me! -
wow, you really are good at writting nature poems, maybe you just see the true beauty in them all, unlike most. i really liked this one
xoxo keep writting -
wow! I really felt like i was there! the imagery was not overtaking the poem and yet, just perfectly describing the scene. this poem triggered memories in my head, so I can relate to this poem esaily.
"Spherical majesty
Melting into earth
Orb of marvel beauty
Giving twilight new birth"
I particulalry enjoyed this stanza. it ended the poem justly, and flowed VERY WELL. this is the kind of speaking that "strikes my fancy"
well done! good luck in the contest!!
