I boarded a plane at 6:30pm…shortly before sunset in my place. A not-quite-full plane meant I sat near the window with my sister in the aisle and space between.
As we traveled north (not too far north), I watched the sun hanging out along the horizon…and about an hour later, I was still watching it as the sky began show off bands of red and orange.
And knowing that time was slipping away, I revised my idea for today’s post and settled on a 6-word story instead.
Chasing northern sunsets as we fly.
I love watching the sunset from a plane’s window. There’s something ethereal about the experience. Lovely photo and six-word memoir.
Six word stories are perfect also without explanations. The airplane views always leave me wonder and I hardly ever have the right words to describe them.
Your title is perfect–how cool to hang out with the sunset for a while. I’m a nervous flyer, so I never sit near the window and rarely look out it. I’m always pretending I’m not on a plane –with the help of a good book! Now I want to know where you’re going! Happy travels!
I have never seen a sunset from a plane so I love the image both in picture and in writing. I forgot about the six word story. Thanks for the reminder!
You captured this beautifully in both the picture and your six word story. Love the title! Safe travels!
What a beautiful sunset – both the picture and the words.
Gorgeous sky and perfect six word story.
Six word stories ftw! Yours is beautiful as is the photo. Slicing on vacay is challenging, so those 6 word memoirs/stories come in handy. Have a great trip!
So good. Great poem and lovely photo. How cool to be chasing sunsets in a plane. It gives a different perspective way up in the sky!
Beautiful! I love when you get to chase the sunset…it’s very magical indeed!
