The sun has a voice! (of lavender and gold)

Missing image
The sun has a voice
of rich lavender and gold
as it peers from behind
black mountains and rocks
settling for the night
from a long day's work
it shrieks water colors 
all over the sky
as if to shout to the world
Goodnight!

Author notes

I first entered this contest...and all of a sudden i had writers block...so i was searching pics on my computer and i came across this one. My first thought on this pic was that the sun looked like it was shouting! and it was so vibrant with colors...so i had to use it for this contest! hope you like

      Wow, that is just too bad...First of all, I think my poem does have good flow. it rhymes, its about color, and I worked hard on this poem for this particular contest. I've waited weeks for you to even view it. and when i got your comment, i was kind of shocked. so I came here and started reading what you wrote to everyone. You didn't like anyones poem! Now the comment you just sent to all of us does make me a little angry, because here is your rules: "...it could be anything
      relating to colors
      personal experience
      what it makes you think about
      how it came about
      what does it mean

      anything"

      If this is the case, I will not be participating in anymore of your contests...sorry
