Your words describing the scene of twilight and day coming to an end are as pretty as the picture you chose to go along with your poem. Good luck with the contest.

Gorgeous scenery. The night skies bring out the golden hues in the picture. What a sunset. Looks like the water's reflections are perhaps from the setting sunset, too.

What a lovely image, and you your accompanying poem reflects that. It is a serene and beautiful moment in time, captured by your words, for the reader to enjoy. Good wishes for the contest.

"Twilight
brightness
fills the sky
Summer sun
at
Horizon's edge
Time for day's end."
You did a great job on this poem. Your words are an apt description of the picture you have chosen. Twilight is such a special time of day.

Your septolet describes a sunset vividly in only fourteen words. You start with a panorama shot of the coloring sky, then zoom in on the sun dropping below the "Horizon's edge." Indeed daytime is ending. Rod

Loved the pairing of photograph and poem. So hard writing the piece you want under competition requirements, but I think you did a good job in painting a vivid picture with your language and imagery.
