Tangerine | Sunset Poems

I live near a beautiful reserve, impressively maintained by the council. It has a huge playground for adults to play soccer or cricket, and smaller kids play area. During my pregnancy, I used to go there often for walking. And now we take the baby out on a stroll in the evenings. Most days, I get to capture some gorgeous sunsets but had to stop after the bushfires started 4 months ago. The air was too smoky and unhealthy. Now that the weather has cooled down a bit, I hope I get to carry on our ritual before winter sets in, as then it will get dark by 5 pm.

  1. Beautifully written poems! And those sunsets – breathtaking! We credit the setting sun, but it’s the clouds and dust, the pollen and smoke, the droplets of ice and rain that make a sunset gorgeous. All the little impurities we complain about (rightfully!) helps to make that warm and colorful glow.

Let’s keep the conversation flowing!
