purply pink skies
erupt into a blue hue
clouds skid by
trying to fly
then blood red
from our sinking sun
heralds another day done
as moon and stars
glint in the silky dark
each hour ignites a spark
as she constantly changes gowns
d’Verse, sky in 44 words, De
aroused 
Imagery is beautiful. Silk Gowns wow so appealing.

Wonderfully lyrical, Kate! Indeed, you chose the perfect word in “seductress.”
Very few of life’s experiences are as mesmerizing as the hour when day and night melt into each other. Day yields eventually, but only after the most breathtaking display. Then it’s the stars’ turn to put on a show of their own.
Missed it today? Same time tomorrow, give or a take a minute. Never gets old, either.
Thanks, Kate, for sending us tickets!

Hi Kate! This piece you wrote today was wonderful to read. BTW — This is something I need to share with my fellow writers here at dVerse. I so enjoy reading the work that you create and post, and am genuinely honored to be embraced as a part of this community of poets. May we all find healing in these challenging times. And as a true aquarian love child, and also a proud flower child of the 60’s, who truly believed then we would some day change the world to be a better place for all, and still believes that we might yet do it — I wish each of you peace, health, and love. Write on!
