Summer Morning
A flicker of light trickled through
the black obsidian sky
Narrow ribbons of pink, lemon and baby blue
interwoven here and there
Gunmetal grey clouds dispersed
as they floated gently by
Daybreak emerged from the darkened
womb, raw and bare
In celebration 'The Dawn Chorus'
raised it's voice in praise
Lulling the new born sunrise
as it greeted the day
The transparent moon
disappeared
The sun returned in light
filled rays
I watched in stunned silence
amazed by its beauty
as I went on my way
