Sunrise Over Water

Uncategorized 1 Minute

pastel layers of colors like smoke expand
over the deep water’s blue
and the sunrise, soft as a sigh with the pigments
of dreams break over our hearts
and then sing of the coming sun
the trees inhale as the new day
is divided, the world is shifting

and gentle fingers of light reach for us
