Sunset Over the Mississippi River

Sometimes the wind gusts

And nonplussed, colors combust

-- the sun blazes through

 

 

I was missing the view of a good Colorado (home state) sunset. It is interesting how I can miss a thing so much that I do not notice what is in front of me. The sun does not care where I live. My mind is my greatest freedom, and my only limitation.

 

This was taken on the Illinois side of the Mississippi River. Across the way is Iowa.

 

I am not a fan of corn, and the wintertime here is gray, but the springtime storms and scudding clouds can take my breath away.

 

(My apologies, feeling poetic today)
