Autumn Sunset (JM)

 (Joseph MacRae, published in Writers at Play Presents: The Art of Letter Writing, edited by Daisy Barrett-Nash, Equal Arts, 2023. From 1992.)



Autumn Sunset


Sunset of orange and red
soon to set upon the West.
A pastel scene painted upon a

Where clouds of grey mix with emerald light.
Now stained with gold, and trimmed in red.
Silhouette the mountains of purple haze,
and set the sea ablaze.
Soon comes the twilight, then the
night.
