See more in my Winter set Here

 

 

Like drones rising up

We are eager to catch first light.

It’s Winter, so the catching

Is not too difficult;

 

Though it may be hard:

Stiff and inflexible like

The frozen melt on top

Of old snow.

 

We tramp through anyway.

The reward will be sunrise.

There is nothing else in

All of the goodness of

 

Creation can compare to the sun

Rising like a painter’s

Brush cresting the horizon

And painting languid,

 

Luxurious, and enlivened

Hues briskly across the

Sky. Then, just as quickly

and beautifully as she starts,

 

The painting is done and

Wafts away in the wind,

Ready with a new palette

For the next day and the next.
