Beautiful… Sunrise has its power (Hope & New Beginnings). But, as a night owl, I’m a sunset guy & think of twilight as a magical time of all possibilities—when the day is exhaling…

Here’s a sunset I captured, in Peru, and a poem I wrote to honor the dying light:

Start, Again

Sunset is a gentle master to all that are stricken
patiently, teaching us how to melt a bruise away
Watch how, with a silver whisk, that cracked egg
of a setting sun is majestically stirred, and put to rest

Violent violet, pining pink, and yelling yellow
all agitated, then muted, their differences reconciled
Until all that remains is a faint tattoo of quiet hurt
pearlescent wisps of smoke from a sighing flame

that night, stealthily, smothers and hushes away…
