West End Show

the fields are on fire under

a rich marmalade sunset,

the fresh plough burnished,

leafless tanglesome

hedgerows shot through

with the sun’s dying rays,

myriad pinprick embers

sit like red fireflies among

the backlit twigs, nature’s

free pyrotechnics show

Your poem brings it to life, Graham, as if the reader was there.

Driving home last evening!
One of the most staggeringly
beautiful sunsets I've seen
