End Of The Day, Brora…
(Inspired by Rosanne Barr’s fine painting…)
Eyes take in the hues at first, luscious pastel shades
As if the canvas has been painted, crafted with abstract
Sunset strokes, their layers settling like coloured sand
Striped and packaged inside a decorative jar.
Yet soon a stunning seascape slowly clarifies below
A sky spewing glorious colour which reaches out then fades
To pale yellows, pinks and peach, whose angled entrails refract.
A stark, grey sliver of land extends like a ghost of a scar,
A spear inserted into the splendid, flamboyant, vivid glow…

Loved this painting…
At first I noticed the colour, the stripes, the abstract then suddenly I saw the sunset, the seascape and the bay, which was a total surprise…
