The brilliance of tonight’s sunset
Was not what I had hoped it would be
And yet the transition took place, all the same
Without the brilliance of which I had hoped
Another day faded into the darkness of night
Then I was reminded of a simple fact
This is a one time only experience
Never (EVER!) again will it look exactly like this
Brilliance of another sort entirely
And I am here to witness it.
I am grateful!

This is gorgeous!! 💖
Thank you Trini.
Splendid. 😍
Thanks so much Sweta.
i think i know that exact feeling
and you are exactly right
each one is different
and think about it
it is happening all over the world all the time
in our own little sectors
we witness them
yet just 25 miles away they can look completely different
amazing wonder beyond wonders
infinite beauty constantly everywhere
yes, i too am grateful for each one.
Amen to that! Thank you for your thoughts.
Which lake is this? I swear it looks like Lake Champlain!
This is actually not a lake at all. This photo was taken at Dungeness Bay, along the Strait of Juan de Fuca in Washington State.
