A very well written 5-7-5 poem on a beautiful sunset. Excellent colors that only the Master can provide so perfectly. Everything seem to be better in Spring.

Saffron sky's remind me of India. A very beautiful sunset and a poem that frames that beauty. You have written a very moving poem.

Cheers Zanya;
- your 5/7/5 syllabic format is very prophetic in its statement about life and the beauty of a sunset. I love the term saffron and it is very picturesque and full of imagery is your writing that is exquisitely expressive and vividly and demonstratively descriptive throughout the piece.
-pictures very appropriate and relative to the concept and theme of your writing
- good luck in the contest and may the good Lord be with you always my friend.

I am quite a fan of these 5-7-5 poetic offerings. I am always fascinated by how much can be said with so few words. Very nicely done.

Very nice 5 - 7 - 5 paints a vivid mental picture using very few words. Flows well. Excellent choice of artwork. Don't know if you intended to capitalize spring, as it was not necessary (except as the beginning of a sentence. If so, would you want to capitalize saffron?), but it's OK as is since it's a poem.... (I never know with poems!) Good luck in the contest!

Lovely pairing of photo and poem
Your poem, especially your references to color, shadows and artist's palette, creates a vivid picture and suggests a serene mood.
"Emblazon" is a strong verb well-chosen.
