Setting Sun
The fiery orb set
upon the desert land
Spewing rose on
its tawny face
Like a horse’s mane
Its rays galloped
over the sands
Brushed a flurry
All bright
Then amber light
As onward marched
the hand of night
And shadows crawl
A candle nipped
And starry sky lit
Frances Leitch
Feeling that life is in nature’s palm, I have spun tales of life and the sea, desert, sun, and wild spaces since youth. I’ve done poems, articles, short stories, public relations, and having a hobo spirit, traveled through 48 states and 17 countries. In writing and sharing poetry, I hope to pass on nature’s wonder, a kernel of meaning, and feeling -- that pockets a bit of the sun.
My poetry has been published in poetry magazines and literary journals, some of which are: The Archer, Lite, Poetry Now, Write On!!, Mysteries of the Lyric World, Baltimore Literary Newspaper, Sacramento Poetry Journal, Art Times Journal, Willard & Maple, Shemom, Free Xpres Sion, and Westward Quarterly, the later three of which I have been a featured writer in as well.
Lovely. Linda
