A Falling Sun


It all started with a peel of orange.
Not an orange peel
but
a peel of orange.

Then,...
a soft strip of pink.
Soon
it started to rain
shades of a sunset.

Not long after
my gut screamed at me,
"Look up!"
So, I looked.

The earth nearly shook.
No, it was my conscious mind in for a shake.
Blackness stood before the falling peels of colors
that belonged to the sun.

More like my reaction than my response
was
"Where is God?!"
Peels of hope and vibrance in colors continued to fall.

Drink your water.
Eat your food.
Love love.
Fiction can qualify as education.

  2. :) hugs back to you wonders.

    The main reason for this being a blog is that I've not published a dime, a dime being anydamnthing in any magazine or even pamphlet. :/ Gotta do that first before doing a book...it's "their" rule.

    Still, I'm graced by your thought.
    Love!
