The Break of Day
The Break of Day
Caught by the morning sun Spanish moss Is dipped in spun gold and hanging from ancient oaks The gentle flapping of duck wings shaking off water Fleeting shadows of leaves carried by the wind Whispering words echoing in your mind as the day begins Gently and sensuously with its sights and sounds Copyright © 2020 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Sanaa Rizvi from A Dash of Sunny is hosting Open Link Night at D'Verse Poets tonight.

Dawn
Dawn
A flock of starlings shaken like a carpet against a stormy grey sky released a cacophony of sounds breaking the silence of dawn Whistling wind howled through leafless trees as a thick mist hung mysteriously in suspension above the lake waiting for instructions The sun struggled to crack the sky so it might cast its beams of light The moodiness of the landscape cried for relief from the darkness and the earth craved warmth Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing © Frank Tassone is hosting D'Verse Poets tonight and he has prompted us to write a poem in the aesthetic of the Imagists
Daybreak
Daybreak
Dawn
kick-starts
the day
delightfully assaulting
the senses
with a conflation of
lambent colors
and shapes
Unfolding slowly
changing with
each moment
The rising sun
pushing back
remnants of
night’s darkness
reflecting its image
in the mirrored lake
Heralding what
is to come

Vista
Vista
Clicking of hungry birds
tumbling in the frozen air
A stream of ice reflecting
the pink sky of daybreak
as sun lights earth in a flare
A breathtaking vista
the beholder enraptured
with serenity of the moment
Pausing to accept the gift
the eyes had captured
