Heya Harry. I've fallen behind on reading and reviewing for a while. I hope you did well in the contest.
The orange framed picture and black elms set against an orange setting sun skkky is really perfect for your poem. I love to watch horizons filtered by trees, so your poem is especially pleasing for me.
I can picture the dark, moving shadows on the ground.

This 5-7-5, Evening Shadows, has the correct set up and creates a spectacular sunset that reminds us of why we like the end of day. Nice.

This is a poetic and beautifully illustrated 5-7-5. It captures a moment when the sun is setting and the astute observer can appreciate the end of the day. Much luck in the contest. Marilyn

Nice pairing of words and image. Your poem gives us a vivid description of the scene as the setting sun casts those long shadows - prelude to the night.

Good luck in the contest.
