Shades { Gold }

Tangerine melted sorbet skies,

Tinted cream swirls,

Harmony blended richness of tones.

 

Silhouette cutouts in ebony traced paper,

Marked distant horizons,

in the hilltops of memories.

 

Light fading orb,

Vanishing against canvas,

To the night shades,

of today.

    Ah, the imagery here...reminds me out cut outs on black paper made for times in autumn on construction paper as a child or the hallowe'en Season as well...but also your words chosen so much like APbrother Roaddog...No wonder he likes your work..You are from the same realm of imagery writes...Deserving Gold, my dear!

    Mellow it is! Congratulations on the gold. You just gave me an inspiration. I have started to paint, using acrylics, and your imagery has inspired me to paint "Shades" If it turns out the way I think it will, I will gift it to you, my sister who hasn't added me to her page under sisters! LOL
    I love you dearly!
