Tanka (kaleidoscope turns)

by Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens

Kaleidoscope turns
color burst on western sky
brilliant reds and gold
sets the tops of autumn trees
divinely ablaze with fire



Tanka Poetry Contest contest entry

Thanks to benhar for this perfect picture.
I witnessed the most awesome sunset today and could hardly wait to write this down. The colors would change rapidly as if you were looking into and turning a kaleidoscope. Then the tree-tops caught fire, as it were, for a brief moment before the brilliance faded into a perfect twilight. What a blessed assurance of His presence. :-) Carolyn
