Highway 12, 5:36 pm

Hello degrees,
I'd suggest swapping the last line and the title, and also adding more dabs of luminous color. All in all, there's interesting, stark imagery. I also have a soft spot for short poems like this. 
I couldn't help but add 'dwells' to slant rhyme with '12' 
Thanks, Mark

Honeyed light,
pooling in warm
pastures

tiny figures,  Hmm?? Doesn't do anything for me
dabs of luminous
colors:

straw hat, a young man’s red jacket,  no 's on young
flocks of Canada geese  color?

a stir of starlings, color?
busy with evening
arrangements

sunset dwells
on Highway 12
