Hullo Brooke ...

What a beautiful sunset picture you have at the top of this short work in which you develop the thought that Day closes up her shop each night, to reopen again in the moirning. Of course, imagination is conjuring up visions of all the stock on hand each day.
I enjoyed this and thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
Love from .... Nanette Mary.

I just loved how this felt to my spirit, the sun cannot be shelved in those glorious colors, he bursts into beauty poet's write about. Just beautiful my friend.

Still blocked from giving you a six! >:(

Wow, yet again, you've managed to give me goosebumps. This is truly a beautiful poem.

"Day ... each night." - Where do you come up with lines like this? You breath so much life into things it's crazy.

I especially loved the last two lines. It really brought the whole thing together. Great job.

What a uniquely written piece. The details are defining and capture great imagery. The rhyming scheme has added character to your words and the picture choice is fitting and accents your work well. The flow is smooth and easy to follow, I found no error:)

Most unusual and not that poetic way to think about sunset. But your beautiful Quatrains make it work in this poem. Liked it with shelves from shop and closing at night and opening each morning. Nice metaphor if you ponder longer.

I enjoyed reading your poem. If we have a bad day, night time is welcomed, for we always have hope for a better tomorrow. The picture is breathtaking.

I think this is one of the best poems you have ever written. I have read many of them and find your wording, coloration and scheme to be in sink. Thank you for the great poem.

I love the thought of the sun signing a promissory note with the sunset, saying he'll be back tomorrow. Such a creative idea. Love, Jeanie
