Think Tank Thursday

Poets United prompt #30  this week is Observation.   There are so many directions one can go in. I chose a sunrise, this photo if from my back yard a few days ago.


 



Darkness dissipates as Mother Nature paints the canvas sky,
With fluid dreams of fuchsia, orange and mauve, 
A swirling dance as the morning burst
Open like an orange peeled,
Revealing incandescent light,
Silhouetted trees stand steadfast as the final imprint
Of night parts ways,
Begins the passionate birth of day.
The yawn of morn starts,
Translucent ribbons of light fray out,
Spread cheer of the star’s arrival,
Bursting forth brilliance, 
Passion explodes as the resin glow fills the marine blue sky,
Muslin clouds fringed with gray dust and sepia part ways,
As night gives its final hug good-bye,
The canvas changes again,
Awakening the passion of a new day, 
Brilliance of mood appears,
Blanketing our landscape, 
Transcending the gifts of time.
