I enjoyed your 5-7-5 contest poem. Good job on the syllable count, and the use of alliteration. The picture is awesome. Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest.

This is great. Saffron rays describe these sunsets perfectly.Just one of the colors on that palette.Emblazon describes the event vividly. Bravo, judester

So well written 5-7-5 poem. Each word chosen leaves one with a strong image and then when they're put together, one has a picture of a gorgeous sunset. The picture adds to it, but one could imagine the sunset without the picture, the verses are so nice.

Excellent Poem! The first two line of this poem flow and connect well. The last line puts the poem together. The artwork is awesome and compliments the words
and theme of this poem.

This is a lovely entry in the 5-7-5 contest.
beautiful descriptive imagery gives the
reader a clear picture of the scene.
Good use of alliteration with "saffron/sunset" and "pristine palette.
Good luck in the contest.
Nancy

Very nice, Zanya. Your 5-7-5 is rife with alliteration. It reads more like haiku than 5-7-5 poetry to me, but it's still a very lovely and well expressed sentiment. It shows your true appreciation for the simple beauty found in nature.
Best of luck to you!

Very pretty poem that speaks of the beauty of sunsets in the eyes of the beholder...elegant, yet whimsical....There is nothing needed to add or take away from the experience of the poem.

This is a beautiful 5/7/5. Lines l and 2 interconnect well and line 3 makes a good satori. Lovely descriptive work with a good picture. Good luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x

Nice alliteration throughout! The poem itself is really a haiku in my humble opinion but just as well works as its self.
Thanks for sharing!
Good luck!
Blessings!
