Pastel Magic

Susi challenges us: Please create one senryu and one haiku to accompany this image prompt. Remember that traditional American haikus and senryus are three lines presented in a 5-7-5 syllabic pattern. The haiku describes nature or a season, and the senryu focuses on human nature and emotions.

pastel magic floats
over peaks too beautiful
to keep to myself

the sunrise welcomes
the world over craggy rocks
beauty spills over
