Humboldt Bay Sunset
The Sun, a Chinese lantern,
Collapses, fold upon fold.
Putting itself away
In the cupboard of the bay
On which painted ducks fly dark above the water.

Wow. Did you write that? Great photo too.
Sometimes you don’t write, sometimes the poem springs nearly formed from an image. In this case, the sun just collapsed on itself like a Chinese lantern and the rest of the lines followed from the photo.
Very nice double-header with the lovely photo AND poem!

Beautiful and wonderful! I’m glad that you included this sunset in full color. Black and white photography always leaves me just a little chilly and cold, Black and white seems like something was left out. Like somebody was too lazy to dot their I’s or cross their Tee’s. Nature was designed to be viewed in Panarama and technicolor.
I fully understand that It’s just me. But, at least I know what I like!

The poem and the photo go together so well. I have seen that kind of sunset, with the folding accordion sun. Thanks for sharing your art!
