Recording of Carolyn Raphael reading her poem,"Neighborly Sunset Calls"

​

Neighborly Sunset Calls
 
My neighbor across the street calls me
to look out my west-facing window.
“Look at that sunset—red, orange, and pink.”
Today has been filled with crank phone calls,
so this is a gift.
She only calls when the sunsets are dazzling,
but it’s such an uplifting way to stay connected.
