At The Going Down Of The Sun

Original Image by Penny Smith
Stillness spreads
over the landscape
as evening
stands poised on the horizon
   of another day.

An edit of something I wrote earlier, updated and posted for Poetry Jam.

  4. I'm with Laurie. I love the wording 'evening stands poised on the horizon' - it's perfect.

  6. This is the sort of feeling one gets when looking at the Eastern horizon during sunset! Lovely...
