sapphire on sapphire
at the rise of jewelled night
when the stars flash fire
mysterious quest
like the wide-eyed owl spying
as beauty's fading
in the vast deep blue
the scarlet sun is sinking
like a cherry bomb
You have added a most scintillating picture of the blue, Evelyn! So beautiful blue!
When the stars flash fire, sensational occurrences to watch at. Amazingly captured, Evelyn! Most beauteously worded. I have enjoyed a very lot your very fascinating poem.5 Stars and to my Favourites!
So beautiful with such lovely images for the most magnificent time of the day.
