The wintery feel is in the air now and it (almost) made me want to stay wrapped up in the warm yesterday afternoon until I gave myself a talking to and remembered how important it is for me to get out as much as possible when the days are shorter. My efforts were rewarded by the striking sunset that I saw and my mood was instantly lifted.

Dusk Idolising

Each time I choose my walking shoes and catch the sunset’s splendour

Its strands of dessert orange-blue my soul

more grateful render

These fleeting bursts can quench my thirst for beauty and inflate me

To see each rising as the first, a gift I value greatly

My fingers freeze but I’m still pleased to seize this light’s perspective

The half-moon grins behind tall trees, our moods are so subjective

We do not know what will ensue, this moment let’s befriend her
