2017.12.09: Thoreau’s morning

season of the day
hi-def orange sun dissolves
blinding orb of light

2017.10.30: spark

daybreak’s rosy glow
spilling onto clouds and streams
ignites dormant hearts

those cooped up inside

can’t see the fleeting colors

passing through dawn sky

February bud

igniting sky with red glow

then melting darkness

hazard lights flashing

a birder stops to admire

hawks bathing in dawn

lightning to the North

geese veering to avoid storm’s path

Eastern sky glows red

pushing back the night

string of pearls lighting the way

the splendor of dawn
