That beautiful photo will inevitably rekindle distant thoughts at dusk but it could also be a sunrise offering new hope for the future. A sad poem beautifully written.

Absolutely charming! An old one, but I've just seen it. Daniel was with us then. Time to think of time.

A highly expressive short poem that you have so elegantly constructed on the falling dusk depicting your nostalgia for a definite past evening! The use of the phrase, ‘panting breath of invading silence’ is absolutely fabulous! Well penned! I appreciate your writing style…….10

What a gorgeous photograph you found to accompany your poem. It's breath taking! ! And as I stare at it, which I'm compulsively doing, the colors and the expansive landscape reconcile me to the damage done by time, because this sunset is also a function of time and it exhilarates me. Your words are carefully balanced, that is, I feel it is a poem of realization, poised equally between the sadness of time and the promise of time, neither extreme cancelling the other, and all we have to do for ourselves is to summon is the HOPE which seems to be implicit in your words just waiting for us to embrace it. This is truly a nostalgic poem.
