‘Neath indigo skies
Red glow on the horizon
Real world turns to dream
Water slips to sleep
The evening turns into night
But what awakens?
Final glow reflects
Day creatures take one last look
Night creatures their first

This was written for Colleen’s weekly poetry challenge. This week we could chose our own key words. I did a haiku or two or three…
Trent, what a lovely Haiku trio. I like how you wrote in the moment here with your image. Great photography too! <3

I like the line, “Water slips to sleep.” Actually I love the whole piece; nicely written.

Thanks. I think I tried a dozen variations of that line before I hit on using “slips” as the verb.

I really loved the last two lines the most – but all good leading up to that
