I see this as a Shakespearean sonnet...But you've made it so obvious is not originally yours.
When it's a good write but the syllable scheme is imperfect.
Check the last line of the piece; the syllable there is eleven not ten like the rest.

Quite nice and the language reminds me of a time my parents would love to read about. The last three lines are relevant to me as my mother, 77, has just reconnected with a love of her youthful middle years in the Resthome.

A beautifully written sonnet, with similarities in style to the original quite striking! The narrative flows easily with sound meter, and the rhyming is good! I liked the descriptive language in the narrative. Well done, blessings, Roy.

paints with palettes Love the 'p' alliteration
purpled pink Love 'whence' and 'doth' " "
bards boisterously sang 'b' "
glowing globe/sits setting Double "
'Tis then the time ALL those 't's
Before all God's blest/rest. Internal rhyme4
The pull/passion's 'p' Alliteration entices

CONSIDER:
PASSIONS IGNITE WHEREIN love's hopes may lie
Entwined when setting sun's last rays expire,
WHEN prayers arise MAY ardor last THIS long.

Loved the piece. No disrespect intended. My!! What a challenge so aptly met.

Regards:

Good use of the Sonnet rhyme scheme. Good end rhyming. Good perfect rhyming with hang/sang...west/rest. Good description that paints a clear picture. Good alliteration. Clear message as I see nothing that I would add or take out of this piece. Good work.

this is very well written, treischel, you did an excellent job writing this sonnet about the sweet hellos and goodbyes as the sun and moon pass by. I enjoyed reading it.

What a beautiful picture this paints! Every appreciative swipe of the paint brush INDEED! There IS a certain marvel that deserves compassionate utmost attention...and it is called, "the sunset!". Thanks for the share!

Good riposte, sunset as renewal/passion rather than death but not better than the bard (of course you know that). Did you use a filter to get those purples?

    Thank you ravenblack. Yes, actually the sky was orange or gold and red. I really liked the result. Love digital cameras these days.

    Did you have problems installing your camera's software into your computer? Ours won't read the disc. Even sent in for a replacement disc and still no dice. I have a cannon SLR.

    No, none at all. I have a Kodak 982 and a Sony Alpha. I usually load to my iPad and later transfer to my PC. Transfer is automatic when they sync.

Wonderful work. Creative and dripping with wonderful visual images. And plenty alliteration. I like glowing/globe the best. Good author notes. Nice work.

You have written a very beautiful sonnet in response to the challenge set before you. The flow of the words was like gently floating down a river. Absolutely beautiful.
