Exceptional A Huitan Poem Little Poems : Crimson Colors by Treischel

Crimson colors grace evening sky That kisses mirrored water scene. Blends beautifully as hues apply A vivid touch to sunset's sheen, So often seen at end of day. A sight that takes your breath away, Reflecting sunlight, so serene, On ripples in a quiet bay. Author Notes The sky is on fire with a crimson sunset reflected upon the water. This poem is a Huitan. I was introduced to this format by Sunnilicious, a fellow Fanstorian, who came across it in her NaPoWriMo exercise. It is a format that consists of eight lines with an 8 syllable count and a fixed rhyme scheme of: ababccbc. This photograph was taken by the author watching the sunset at Lake Phalen in St. Paul, Minnesota during May, 2013.
