Sun-splashed sparkles
blink and wink
in impish delight.
Dawn’s chilly yawn,
softened by a rosy caress,
captures the awaiting sky. Mountain shadows glow pink,
striking all around
to silent
on searching souls
of morning’s first breath
hovers
– suspended
in peaceful pause.And in that fleeting moment
the foreign hum
of human stirrings
icily slices
through
this oasis of calm.The scene’s serenity
is swallowed up
till tomorrow.
