A Sunset of the City by Gwendolyn Brooks

"A Sunset of the City"


A lot is happening in this poem. Gwendolyn Brooks compares a sunset to her life. She talks about how she is aging and how her life is passing by. Her life is like a sunset because her children have grown up, so her life is less hectic. She also brings in the nature aspect that many poets do, talking about the weather and the sun at the end of the summer/beginning of winter.
