Embracing the sky

~

Here I stand

in a lonely field

of winter rye

and dandelion

watching

faint ribbons

of apricot break

across a weary

horizon

 

And as I see

the enchanting

beauty of the

morning sun

embracing a

silent waking sky,

my heart wishes…

I were that sun

and she were

that sky

~

Good morning everyone

Good Morning Dear Willweb,
Such an intimacy created between the sun and the sky. Brilliant in imagery and so rich in romance. A poem to love always.

[willweb]

Thank you so much my friend and welcome back. I hope you had a wonderful trip.

[Ayvid N]

You are welcome always.
I had a great trip dear friend. I made a New Year resolve to be right here on the Cafe posting a poem a day and being there for all my friends doing the same. I hope I keep my resolution.
