Sunset Poems
Marmalade Street
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
On a street of mellow autumn, gold leaves have turned deep orange
As harvest season offers vibrant hues, and cold that makes you cringe
And wild, bitter orange sunsets, are caught between plummy days
Flamingo Flame
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
flamingo sunset
just the hour their world's afire
whispers of moonlight
orange and pink sky
hues reflected in water
nighttime is dreaming
elegance and grace
commanding all the twilight

An August Ago
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
The stars shone so much brighter,
And it was merely one August ago,
When carefree hearts were lighter,
Before deep gold summer had to go!
The wandering birds sang a finale,
In the color splashed sunset hour,
As bare trees shivered in a valley,
And long gone is my scarlet flower!
Until Rose Sunset
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
butterflies on blooms-
a tango with destiny
in daylight colors
lured from miles afar
in scented days of summer
as hues catch their eyes
the fields gone wild, and
beauty wings in the sunshine

Ulysses
by Alfred Lord Tennyson
It little profits that an idle king,
By this still hearth, among these barren crags,
Match'd with an aged wife, I mete and dole
Unequal laws unto a savage race,
That hoard, and sleep, and feed, and know not me.
I cannot rest from travel; I will drink
Life to the lees. All times I have enjoy'd
Greatly, have suffer'd greatly, both with those
That loved me, and alone; on shore, and when
Thro' scudding drifts the rainy Hyades

Novel Colors
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
exotic sunsets
in yellows peaches and golds
of the farewell days
fading of splendor
that colors the earth and sky
day's forget-me-not
forever moments
make up a sunset story

Red Rover
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
I was an essential nature photographer, very deeply immersed in my work,
Exploring leafy, wild green mansions, in the sunlit halls where beauty lurks.
I had always enjoyed natural pursuits, like minty trees reach for blue skies,
Enjoying the caress of amber sunshine, in the hours of magenta butterflies.
I loved capturing beauty all about me, from seemingly endless abundance,
Ranging from capped mountains, to still valleys, in unrestrained indulgence.
I took my camera everywhere I went, so I'd never miss a perfect moment,

A Burgundy Sign
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Fruits of a long day
black cherries in sundown skies
Then deep purple night
We've long loved the sun
but now greet dusky shadows
The platinum moon
sends rich luster from afar
in the wild rose phase
The birds have not sung lately

Marmalade Street

On a street of mellow autumn, gold leaves have turned deep orange
As harvest season offers vibrant hues, and cold that makes you cringe
And wild, bitter orange sunsets, are caught between plummy days
Summer Gradually
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Summer, and the sunglow hours are creeping, so slowly by
with red ruby treasures, waiting placidly, all day in the sky
But, twilight finally ends, with the perfume of black blooms
