Under the orange sunset sky,
The ready to go surfer rests from a fly...
A fly over the cresting waves no more,
On the now still and serene sunset shore.
I want to go back in to surf again,
Wisftully ponders the surfer sitting in vain.
The sandy shore line now so still,
Inactive pier yonder in the sunset brill!
Warming red and orange tones so bright,
Shine so deeply with warming radiant light.
Romantic sunsets warm the heart,
Yet the lone surfer sits apart....
Apart from a lover nowhere to be seen,
Under this majestic warming sunset so richly seen!

Contest PIF Quickie Prompt Contest by The Painting Poet
Photo/prompt 1 used.
Limit of 10 - 15 lines
Photo depicts:
A surder sitting on the sand of a sunset shore line
resting their arm on the surf board.
Sea is still and serene, there is a pier in the distance
silhoueted by the darkening rich red and orange sunset
sky and the shore is a dark sand colour clean and serene
and very vibrant and warming sky too.

This poem uses the image to the maximum as a setting. I am not a surfer but I feel I have been giving a sense of what it is to be one here waiting for that next wave. Well done.
