“Corsica Sunset” by Leonid Afremov
sienna dusk folds itself
crumpling clouds along vast
orange seams briefly blazing
beneath the precipitous night
From my book Bohemian Scents

“The Sea at Dusk” by Emil Nolde
evening rain whispers
diminuendo of day
gives voice to the moon
a melancholy music
in tempo of transition
“Winter Dusk” by Hilary J. England
(Originally posted February 2014)
early dusk settles
its shawl on the shoulders of
barren afternoons

sienna dusk folds itself
crumpling clouds along vast
orange seams briefly blazing
beneath the precipitous night
light comes undone
in these shadowlands
giving fire its reign
passion burning its
painful identity inside
our veins skin aglow
from the red flames
of love that we lit
in our sunrising hours
keeping its heat
through the turn of
our sky unto dusk
you and I need not
fear for the growth
of these shadows
the smoky soft gifts
of our memories
lasting a little while
longer until they
converge with the
dissolute darkness
of night where our
fire can slumber
unnoticed in comfort
till startled awake by
new lovers who
take up our ardor
igniting their own
blaze and blush of
new glorious dawn

Poetry Puttering by Pax & Company
Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)
flights of fancy from New Zealand
You're never alone, if you've something to share
All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be
