Original DDE™ surrealistic art: “Tall Ship Sunset” by: rob kistner © 11/27/23
N ovember sunset
dances
through leafless trees
memories
drift to you
to that evening
of tall ships
in Beaufort Harbor
your artist’s eyes
dancing
among ship’s riggings
sketched abstract
by sundown
that moment
a beautiful still life
forever
in my heart
it was our last

Artfully done. A beautiful memory and love the opening stanza.
Thank you Di. I appreciate that.
Rob, those snapshots bring both joy and unbearable pain. George Michael sings this just right.
But Lisa, I so both as beautiful proof of life. Yes, George and Elton together sing this shit out of that song love it! 🙂
Beautifully written Rob!
Thank you Carol… 🙂
A beautifully sad tribute poem, Rob. Very well written.
Thank you Dwight… 🙂
That was a beautiful poem – and then that last line was a real punch through the images of the harbour and its sunset. Very well done.
Thank you Freya, very much… 🙂
Aww….this is stunning, Rob. The distinct details, the wistfulness and the flow. Wow, just wow.
Thank you Mish… 🙂
The last moment, a sunset and end… It’s like a film
A bittersweet love story. I loves me love Björn… 🙂
Took my breath away Rob, brought tears at the last line.
Thank you Paul, I felt your sincerity, and was touched — greatly appreciated… 🙂
This happens with a quick crush, it won’t happen, but she appreciates the wink.

Not sure I follow you Jim…
First, apologies for the late comment…time these days, seems to be elusive and passes by much too quickly.
Well….if you were sitting beside me while I read this, you would have heard an audible sigh and a quiet “whoosh” of sorts escape from my mouth. sigh…..just a beautiful and heartfelt writing.
No problem Lil — the time I’m riding these days is like a runaway bucking bronco. Thank you very much my friend, for the kind words regarding this poem.
