Setting Sun Faking to Be the Afternoon Sun..

Written for One Single Impression Prompt : Sunset
Thanks to Kremo of The Obtuse Angle for the prompt




Sink With Me...


"Sink with me to come
Out of depths,” said the setting Sun
And I just sank with it
Coming out of depths could be fun...

( From my book “A Little More Than Ordinary”)


*******


Setting Sun Faking to
Be the Afternoon Sun..
 

I was trying to
Look at the blazing
Afternoon Sun
And lo, suddenly it vanished
Fell directly into the sea
And it was hush
Of the evening
Shocked I couldn't understand
And then as if
The winds whispered
In my ears, " Hey, that was
Setting Sun faking to be
The Afternoon Sun
Wasn't able to face the truth
So kept on trying
To shine in vain
Fighting with the nature."
And for just this folly
The world around
Got deprived of a soothing,
Tranquil and peaceful
Transition of the day
Into a glorious evening...

  14. Enjoyed this - esp. the reminder that one's choices and behaviors affect others whether they wish it or not.
