Morning Muse

The sun lazily drags its self over the horizon,
heartened at the encouragement of birds
tweatingly entreating his glorious arrival.
And one by one, as the rays begin to rise,
the fingers of light creep as I lie in wait

 

the muted soft blue glow hints at the turn,
the darkened shadows form shapes
that were previously banished into obscurity.

That hopeful moment arrives
of midnight blue opaquing the skies.
Trees and buildings now ushered in some sense
of form delineated and defined by gentle light rays,
now freed, dancing upon the edges of things.
On tiptoes, the dimly gentle blue hues of first light
usher away the darker shades of night,
and now my favourite of all things!

Let the light rays genltly pour in,
let them wash and settle over a highway
my eyes never tire to travel!
Wash these irridescent sheets
in an ever glowing light,
casting the beautifulest form,
wrapped and peaceful,
gently pressing the outlines of the bridge of a nose,
chasing away the shadow holiding fast in a dimpled chin.
The hollow of cheeks, bones sculpted with precision,
and the eyes I adore drawn shut,
as the sun yawns and the blue turns to amber dawn,
so shines my sun, turning lazily, draging it's self over to my horizon
heartened by the encouragement of entreating whispers in his ears,
the glow hints at his turn as I rise,
to meet his morning glory!

damn this was beautiful. I

damn this was beautiful. I say was because reading this for the first time was an event that could never happen again, but o I wish it were possible. Turning the sunrise, a wondrous play of light and fire in it's own right, in o something so special is quite a talent. I wish I could feel beauty in such ways.

Oh but you can, one just needs

to take the time to notice and call the right words to play the minds song, these are all things we think but when learning the art of description, the most powerful is observation with the lense of appreciation. ;) I think from what I have read you are more than capable! thankyou for your kind and generous words which by thier own nature were as romanically beautiful to me. PS I like the way you said the first time to read, yes I sincerely agree there is nothing like the splendor and surprising wonder as we delight unknowingly in what comes next! :) Cheers SS
