napowrimo-27-let someone else take the lead

The Sunset.


In the far horizon
Near the edge of the ocean
Glows the sky a brilliant red
Evening's glorious gift
Before the dark of night
Overshadows the land once more.
Relaxing on the warm sand
Glad to be alive!

Something about a seside sunset you just don't get in the suburbs.
Nice one!

Thank you all. I absolutely love the sunsets on the West Coast of Australia as the sun literally sinks into the ocean :) Ingeborg.
