Plain and simple (August 19th sunset)
If I were a sunset where would you find me?
Over the ocean, on the beach of Hawaii?
Would you find me on the Florida coast;
Or the high prairies of Colorado?
Maybe behind a light house on the shores of Maine;
Where ever you find me, I am never the same…
The United Kingdom is always a glow;
And French Riviera, romantic you know;
You might find me in a forest peeking gently through the grove;
I know you have seen me in Belgium’s Heaven bliss;
I have shown through the Netherlands and the tulips night time mist;
But one place you will find me, majestic and proud,
Quiet and peaceful, sometime soft, sometimes screaming loud;
In the eyes of a beholder, the heart mind and soul
Saint George, Utah where her stories are told.

Oooooh, beautiful.
Such a gorgeous sunset, and great poetry to go with it! I enjoyed this Linda. I wish I could write like you do!
That photo is just gorgeous. Love the poem. Utah is a beautiful state.
LindaLu...a poem too!
Now that was "really" good Linda...I visit most of those same blogs...so was relating right along with you.
That's an amazing poem. I keept trying to guess the ending! How beautifully put that though our eyes may see many places, home is always the most lovely...like I said, beautiful!
Thanks Linda, for the lovely poem and gorgeous sunset. As I get older, I find I am appreciating these simple things of beauty like sunrises, sunsets, cloudy skies with sun peeking through. I like to capture them on camera. My kids think I'm bonkers but I just really appreciate their beauty and glorious color.

I bet Utah is a beautiful place..
