Bird silhouettes
Inflate a whirling bubble
Filling the pink sky

Peach jelly sunset —
Clear, beneath a drizzle of
Coconut-cream clouds -
One bright pin pierces
Blue cloth, between white brush-strokes
Of a matte painting -
Powerlines bend, with
A cacophonous weight — birds,
Bringing in dusk -
A dozen diamonds
Glitter bright, as the light leaves
Burnished, copper sky -
Copper and cobalt,
The sky-mares dance, invisible
Except cloud tails -
Five seconds' sunset —
The leaden sky is bright, for
One brass memory. -
Day keeps us in
Sweating in chilled rooms, until
Cool, orange dusk -
Late dusk lingers
Greens and yellows preserved, in
Golden syrup light -
Royal Bluebells
in the dusk light fade — pale
and perfumeless
