Sun Spot

The setting sun was so surreal,
Suspended in the sky –
A rosy orange color,
Beauty no one could deny.

It looked enormous hanging there
And had a spectral glow,
Most resembling a backdrop
From a movie studio.

With some streaks of cloud across it,
It seemed anything but real,
Just a little trick that Nature,
That magician, might reveal.

Had my husband not suggested
That I give an upward glance,
I am sure I would have missed
This very special circumstance.
