Long day ends serene
Sea of ochre floods the sky
Soothes tired mind and eyes

Poetry & writing are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
awwwww.. awesome..beautiful lines x))
not only is your poem lovely but something most of us can relate to and relax into. Thank you.

Again wonderful words from the pen of Leo.Have a peaceful Sunday.Yvonne.
good one.."sea of ochre floods the sky"- beautiful metaphor, loved it!
Great words for a beautiful picture.
The sky really does look on fire! And the verses speak companionably.
Sunsets are beautiful. They do add a soothing, melancholy to the end of a day. You poem captures this feeling well.
Leo, you are as usual wonderful..it is really soothing..

'serene' 'sea' 'soothes' I'm relaxed! Wonderful haiku! Thanks.
Eyes and mind are refreshed .. so they are ready for the new challenges..:)
I tried haiku today and it wouldn't come because I had my doe in my head. But you have captured ochre beautifully, perfectly in the haiku. I enjoyed reading it.http://meeyauw.blogspot.com/2010/06/one-single-impression-ochre.html
I hadn't thought of ochre as a soothing color before – thanks for helping me look at it from a different point-of-view.
It does soothe, doesn't it? Nicely done, Leo.
Plenty of action and nice to be bakc here. Good one Vinay.
